After a valiant battle with Cancer, Dale has now passed onto a higher ground. He was a wonderful son, (#1 in fact!) brother, father, uncle, grampa, great-grandpa, and "UG"- he was surrounded by an enormous amount of love. Survived by Cheryl and her family, Cherie, Paul, and Dale and their families, and Chantell and her daughter Tyselle. Also numerous family members. Survived by his best friend, Hudson - who Dale referred to him as being his "brother from another mother". They had a bond that no one could break and also survived by his companion of 22 years, Janet. Dale and Janet had a very, very special relationship- and Janet loved it when she was introduced by him to others as "his Lady," and not to forget the family pets, Charlie and Milo (or Wilbur as Dale liked to call him.) they are going to miss him as well. Private family ceremony- but a celebration of Dale's life to be held at a later date.
