Romans 8:38-39- For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I worked Dale on a number of real estate deals and he was always so humble and kind. He was truly a unique and special person. He always spoke softly and had a smile on his face. His passing is a shock, and my prayers go to his family! May God Rest His Soul!
