Dale I can’t begin to tell you how much I will miss you. Although, because of distance and circumstances, we haven’t seen each other so much recently I have always known you were a call away. I met you, through Scott, when I was in my 20’s and you were a best friend to both of us. When Scott moved away to Buffalo, you rode with me to meet him in Herkimer (our half-way spot) because I was afraid to make the long drive alone. When I moved out to Buffalo, you got the U-Haul for me, helped me pick it up, taught me how to tow it, and came to my parent’s house to pack me up. When my parents moved, you showed up to help. I have so many great memories of times with you and Scott in RI and then in Buffalo when you came to visit. I loved your visits! When Scott and I separated, you contacted me to see how I was doing and let me know you were my friend too and you were there if I needed you. But you didn’t have to tell me that, I already knew. That’s the kind of guy you were. You were a true friend – honest and loyal always. Honest to “tell it like it is” because that’s the only way to truly help, and the loyal friend I knew I could count on no matter what. I always appreciated and loved you for that. I miss you Dale. Love, Barbara
