I saw Dale about two weeks ago at Jack and Carri's house. He was showing me his iPad and we looked through the pictures he had on there and he took great pride in showing me pictures of Julia and Mark's wedding, Ashley and Julia's Birthday party and other family pictures. I will treasure that time. I always enjoyed Papa Dale's stories about Clear Lake and the old grocery store. What an interesting man. Will miss his twinkly eyes and healthy laugh. - Posted by: Tammy Posillipo (Extended family) on: Aug 07, 2015
