Dale Price

1955 - 2011

The world is a little sadder because Dale Price left us on Feb. 19, 2011, and returned to heaven to be with his Dad…what a joyous reunion.
He was born Sept. 13, 1955, to Bud and Deon Atwood Price. He was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which was very important to him.
Dale was a hero and mentor to everyone that met him and he never met a stranger. His talents and accomplishments are too many to list. His contagious smile and personality will be forever in our hearts. Everyone has a favorite story of Dale. It was said many times what a salesman he was, and it was a joke that he could sell ice to an Eskimo.
Dale was a Leukemia survivor, and he fought long and hard with the most positive attitude. Dale had the cancer defeated, but then due to complications of the flu and pneumonia, Dale is now reassigned to his heavenly duties.
Dale's most priceless possessions were his grandkids. He was the best Grandpa in the world. He loved his family and he was so very proud of them.
Dale is survived by his eternal companion; Karen, his daughters; Stacey (Brock) Pope, Shelly (James) Stratton, and Trisha Price, and son; Tory Price, sister; Beverly (Ron) Pierce, brother; Ken (Donna) Price, grandchildren; Robert and Andrew Stratton, and Olivia and Sophia Pope. He has many nieces and nephews and more friends than anyone can count.
To know Dale was to love him.
He is proceeded in death by his Dad; William Bud Price.
