Dale was a wonderful guy & classmate. He was friendly with everyone & this is a sad loss. Prayers to Teresa & his family. 🙏🏻💔😥
We played together when we were kids. His grandparents lived two doors down from my house. He was a great guy and a great friend. Praying for peace as comfort and strength for the family.
Uncle Dale was always there no matter when or where. My brothers and I were fortunate to have him in our life. We miss him dearly
Dale was my mother’s cousin. He was warm, kind, and very dear to me. I still remember the first day I met him. We met only twice and it was long ago, but those moments will always remain in my memory. My heart is with his family during this difficult time. I send my prayers from across the ocean.
Prayers for Teresa, Nichole, Courtney and his entire family. Our deepest condolences! Dale was so easy to talk to. He was so friendly and had a way of putting folks at ease, right away.
He will be missed.

When Dale was six and I was thirteen, I remember wanting to get closer to him. I placed the soles of my feet gently on his tummy, like playing with a baby, and lifted him like an airplane, swaying him right and left. We laughed so much together — it is still a precious memory for me.
Each time we met afterward, I wanted to ask, “Do you remember that?” but in the end, I never managed to ask.
May he rest in peace.
