My deepest sympathies to Jayne and Dales entire family.What a sad sad day for all of us that knew and loved Dale.
My earliest memories of Dale were at our grandparents homestead on the Stonington Peninsula. I will never ever forget Dales kind heart, sense of humor, and that smile that light up his eyes like they were sparkling. I am sure when the time is right we will have the ultimate reunion in Heaven… RIP Dale XXOO
