Luedella (Dale) Marie Klimt, age 89, of Wilsonville, went to be with the Lord on January 27, 2026. A graveside service will be held on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, at the Alabama National Cemetery at 11:00 AM. Bro. Wesley Criswell is presiding and Bolton Funeral Home is directing.

Dale was a devoted mother and grandmother. She cherished her family deeply and was steadfast in her love and support for those closest to her. Dale spent 25 years as the sole proprietor of Dale's Pet Salon in Alabaster. After retirement, she devoted herself to volunteering at rescues, finding homes for dogs and cats. She also volunteered with Senior Advocacy Group, doing nursing home checks as an advocate for the residents. Her passion has always been helping others and animals.

Dale was preceded in death by her husband: Anton Klimt; and the father of her children: Billy Tilley.

She is survived by her four children: Donna Legere, Steve Tilley, Denise Martin, and Darlene Marler; her grandchildren: Clint Lawrence, Mona Garcia, Kirsty Beech, Nichole Dunsford, Anthony Tilley, Ashley Morrison, Mathew Tilley, Stacey Burke, Chris Martin, Celia Trull, Robyn Macon, Hailey Trammell; and a host of great-grandchildren.
