Uncle Dale always loved to make other people happy. I will always treasure my hope chest he made for graduation, and my beautiful mirror he made and surprised me with cause I was sooo jealous he had Aunt Bonnie's name for Christmas :) He was a great person that would do anything for anyone. He had so much talent and could always put a smile on anyone's face. He will be missed.
Love,

Dale and I were best friends from the time Art, Gloria and family moved back to the SRF in 1968. We always reminisced about the old and caught up on what was new in each others lives. He was a fantastic guy with his fathers sense of humor. I'm really going to miss him. Things just won't be the same. I'll be sure to raise a glass to him at the "Slide"

Dale, my friend, you were such a rare person. Loaded with talent, charisma, and humility in equal measure. Everything you did, you did well. From athletics to woodworking to hunting. I remember when we were still in school, seeing you doodling with a pencil. I looked at your paper and you had drawn a beautiful horse, and it was looking back at me with such an expressiveness on it's face that I swear I could tell what kind of day that particular horse was having. I know my jaw dropped. It was awesome! When you played baseball, in the field, you were like a vacuum cleaner. The ball very rarely got past you.
No, I certainly wasn't ready to say goodbye. But then, I never would have been. You made our world a better place. Thanks. See you later
