Eloise Ann Dale, 74, of Mesa Arizona, passed into the loving arms of our Lord Jesus Monday, October 14, 2013. She fought the good fight against cancer with her faith in Christ unshaken to the end. She is now at peace. She was born May 29, 1939 in Indianapolis Indiana to her parents, Lewis and Zella Pickett. She graduated from Clayton High School in west-central Indiana. After working for Warner Brothers for a time she then worked for Indiana Bell in Indianapolis. That is where her husband, Arnie Dale, who worked for ATT in the same building, began a courtship that resulted in marriage December 3, 1966. In 1978 they moved to Mesa and she ultimately transferred to ATT retiring in 1991. Having no children of their own, they invested their love on nieces and nephews along with all family members. Eloise had a heart of gold and if you were a friend you were blessed. Along with her husband, she became a member of Living Word Bible Church in August 1999 and was active in volunteer work there for many years.
She is survived by her husband Arnold (Arnie), sister Deloris Barnhart of Stoughton, Wisconsin, and many nieces, nephews and their children. A memorial service will held at a future time.
