DALE CALVIN BLEICH It is with deep sadness that the family announces the passing of Dale Calvin Bleich on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, at the Grace Hospital at the age of 51 years. Remaining to forever cherish Dale's memory are brothers, Allen and Dean; numerous cousins; aunts; other relatives and many friends. He was predeceased by mother, Florence and father, Doug. Dale was born on September 2, 1959, in Winnipeg. He was the middle child of Florence (Crisp) and Doug Bleich. He grew up in Winnipeg, but lived in Germany, for a five year period, when he was quite young. Known for his quick smile and sense of humour, friends and family found that Dale was always willing to lend a hand when needed. He enjoyed driving, which made it easy for him to take on work as an owner operator as a long distance truck driver; even after coming off the road, Dale still wanted to drive. He enjoyed family gatherings, visiting friends, listening to books on CD (even reading a few when he had a chance), and watching movies. On Friday, August 26, 2011, a Celebration of Dale's Life will be held at 11:00 a.m. in the Chapel of Memories in Wojcik's Funeral Chapel, 1020 Main Street at Manitoba Avenue. The Family would like to thank the staff at the Grace Hospital for their care and compassion in Dale's final days. Special thanks to Dr. Harris for her care and compassion. In lieu of flowers, if friends so desire, donations can be made in Dale's memory to CancerCare Manitoba, 675 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg, Manitoba R3E 0V9, or a charity of your choice.
