I was sitting in the break room at my job reading the Las Vegas Review-Journal when I stumbled upon the obituary of Dale McPherson. He taught me Sociology at the Community College of Southern Nevada during the Fall '01 semester. I remember him as being very kind, warm, and helping me understand other points of view. I'm very saddened that he has died. I pray for his soul and for the condolence of his family.
