Such a great guy. Friendly, kind, artistic, traits which make an excellent person.
I didn’t know Dale well, however, he struck me as a very kind person. My condolences to the family. Thank you for sharing the celebration for Dale later this month in Detroit.
Great Human… will be missed very much!
I worked with him at the zoo and never saw him without a smile, Rest In Peace, you’ve earned it!
