Dear Barry, Jaci and family,
Both Tom and I are sorry for your GREAT loss. Dale was a man who loved people and enjoyed making them smile. His positive life spoke to many people and his love and care for his family was his top priority. He always had an open door and seat at the table for all who entered his door. He loved Evelyn and missed her every day. I will miss his friendship and his jokes and stories and am grateful to have called him my friend. May his life continue to speak as he is remembered through family stories and memories.

Char and Tom Schultz
