Dale was a blessing to our family. We met him because he was a friend of Kathie's and he immediately became family to all of us. He was a big part of Kathie's Korner, had Dale's Korner.Holidays , he was there unless he had gone to be with his kids. My Grandma Jean and Kathy was probably yelling at him this morning., as he entered into heaven. Along with his wife and parents and others that had passed on before him. No many around like Dale , very few. Just a good guy. Miss Kay , I'm so glad he had you in his life. He deserved a sweet person like you . I'm sorry for your loss, and your daughter and grandsons loss. Dugan to you and your brother , thanks for sharing him with us. My family sends our condolences.
Rest In Peace Mr. Dale!
