Dale, I will miss your award winning smile and your laughter. Thank you for all the years you gave to so many as a Detroit Fire Fighter, including your role as Chief. Your helping others surely got you a " fast pass" into heaven and now heaven has earned a very special angel! You can rest now, and be at peace.
