My dear family,

No words can express how broken hearted I feel at losing such a great uncle. Uncle Dale was our fix it man....he fixed our cars...our broken pipes....our attitude when we needed it....and our broken hearts...he will truely be missed. He was kind, giving and the most mild man I've ever known; when he spoke it was always so gentle and soft and his giggle in his laugh would make me smile. He always welcomed us into his home and made us not want to leave. There has never been a time in my life when I needed you that you were not there...and I never had to ask.... you were just there. I pray that Jehovah will comfort your broken hearts and mend your sadden spirt and give you the strength to endure the coming days; keeping in mind that Jehovah has given us a future and a hope and one day soon we'll hold close the loved ones that we've lost in death...till that time we'll be there for each other. I love you all. Melo and family
