Rest in peace Dale you will be missed. You always knew how to make anyone laugh. My thought and prayers go out to family and friends.
Such a tragic loss! Dale used to drag me around when I was just in diapers. He worked for my dad plumbing for many years. He wasn’t just our friend he was our family! I will always cherish all the memories I have of him. We love you Dale and you will never be forgotten. Our prayers go out to Shirley, Jamie, Denise, and all the rest of his family. May God be with you all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. There are many special memories that will be cherished forever. Dale will be deeply missed.
I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free I’m following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss;
Ah yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life’s been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
