Cheyenne in June 2011

Leaving for Boise 2009

With Collette's children June 2011
Grandpa Dale passed away Nov. 11th in Seattle while preparing for surgery at the VA Hospital.
The past few years have been a struggle with health problems for both Grandpa and Grandma. But we focus our memories on all the years prior to that: Murray, Rawlins, Green River, the cabin and all their adventures - usually with a few available grandkids in tow.
He was a wonderful example to us of a gracious, kind and loving father and husband. We are thankful for his dynamic, active, outlook on life and that we could share in it. We'll miss you Dad - but look forward to seeing you again!
