He worked for the State of Texas for many years as a computer specialist and was honored twice as the employee of the month. Dale graciously spent many hours educating his dad on the computer and its many functions.
Dale had a heart of gold and a very compassionate spirit as any friend or family member can tell you. His favorite Scripture was Hebrews 13:8. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
