    I will truly miss Dale’s wit, grin, great sense of humor, and storytelling. I will always remember Dale and my Dad trying to best each other with tales of their past adventures and hearing stories of Dale and Lenora’s four-wheeling escapades all over the state along with my Mom and Dad. As scoutmaster of Troop 205, Dale had a positive impact on the lives of many young men, including my brother. I’m so glad both of our families were involved in Boy Scouts, as it led to a life-long friendship for our family with Dale and Lenora. Dale and Lenora were a great example of how a marriage should work. The deep love they shared was very apparent. Dale will be sorely missed.
