Bob and I were so sorry to hear about Dale’s passing. WE enjoyed many bonfires and talks up in the north woods. Our thoughts are with all of you, hugs are being sent to each of you.

My sympathy to you Carol and the “the boys”. Dale was a very nice guy. He is in a better place now. You are all in my prayers.

To Carol, Steve, Mark, and family. I am very sorry for your loss. I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers.

Dale was a great person to work with, we shared many laughs together. I sure will miss him, rest in eternal peace. I even found his lost wallet left behind at eye doctors office well after he retired one time.

Thank you for your service ! Dale you were a wonderful co worker. Thank you for making my days at work more enjoyable. May you rest in the LORD.

Dale was my platoon sergeant when I joined the National Guard my senior year of high school. He was a true leader and a good friend. Always willing to help.
