Dale and I hung out for many many years. We joined the Navy together in Nov. 1960, We spent countless hours cruising the Blvd. and fun times at the "Stand". We had good times and bad times but always remained friends. I haven't seen him for about 11 years but we would email a few times a year to catch up.  His last years were with a wonderful lady and they shared each others interests  to the fullest.  He passed on May 2, 2015 from cancer.  I will miss him alot. He had a heart of gold and truely cared about people.  He was in sales a good part of his adult life and could sell a polar bear a black fur coat. I never heard anyone say a negative word about him.   Enjoy your journey my friend.  You are truly missed by many
