    I was saddened to hear of Uncle Dale’s passing. I have lots of fond memories of visiting with him as a kid in Fremont or at some campground with my parents. Uncle Dale was always pleasant to be around. He was always quick with a joke or a funny story. I was glad my wife and daughter got to meet him a few years ago. My condolences to Carolyn, Bill and family.
