You were larger than life, and there will never be another quite like you, Uncle Dale. Thank you for the lessons you've taught me and the laughs we shared. I'll never forget a single moment. Keep a good watch over us, and keep sending us those beautiful sunsets. We love you.
Tam, Tess, Ash, Becky, Mom, Cyn, Dan, Grandma, and Pap - we'll get through this together. Our angel will make sure of it. I love you all.
Dale and family
