Jean,
Dick and I just learned about Dale’s passing from John Peterson. We are so sorry for your loss and also that we will never be able to party in Florida with Dale again. He was so much fun to be with and very kind. Our hearts and prayers are with you. If you are ever in Florida and can get together for a couple of drinks to salute Dale in heaven please call us. RIP Dale

I just found out, Dale was a great Guy! My families thoughts and prayers are with you Jean and your family.
“We’re not here for a long time, we’re here for a good time!”. I’m not sure who the first person was to ever speak those words, but Dale was the person who taught me that phrase! All I have to say is,”Thank you, and Amen Dale! Amen!” You’ll be missed!
For the sword outwears its sheath,
and the soul wears out the breast.
And the heart must pause to breathe,
and love itself have rest.
Roll on Dale.
My favorite memory of Uncle Dale was from a Christmas Eve party when I was about 6-7 years old (so 35 years ago). Aunt Jean was about to take our family’s picture, and evidently we were not smiling enough to Uncle Dale’s satisfaction. He came bounding up with this goofy look on his face, and pretended that he was going to dump his drink all over Aunt Jean’s head. As a first grader from rural Wisconsin, this was about the funniest and most edgy thing I had ever seen. That’s the way I’ll remember Uncle Dale.
To Aunt Jean, Angie, Niki and Brandon and your family’s, I am very sorry for your loss.
Loucks family… I don’t know where to begin.I have lost a great friend, Dale was always thoughtful and fun to be around. I can’t believe he will no longer be around. He will truly be in a special place in heaven. I have countless memories of Dale, especially all of the people, places, and things he showed me in Ft Myers. Every year I went to Ft Myers, I always looked forward to hanging out with Dale and Jean. It will truly never be the same. Uncle Dale knew more people than I could ever imagine. I am so glad I have a picture with him at this years Ribfest, I will cherish it. We will try to keep Stand-up Franks going, and you will always be remembered, but sadly it won’t be the same without you. So, “titter tatter let’s get at her” I’ll have a Miller Lite in your honor and sometime we will meet again, climbing that “Stairway to Heaven….”
Jean and Family,
I hope to make it tonight. I have great memories of all of you and was very saddened to see this news about Dale. Be well and hold tight to the good memories.

We are deeply shocked! So glad we became your Florida neighbors and became your friends, of which you have many and loved by all. Glad we got to see “Uncle Dale” this spring. Our deepest love and sympathy to Jean and family.
Dale, your smile and laughter will forever be engrained in my memories (not to mention all the fun we had together at Tim’s Place/Channel Mark). Jean, Niki and Angie please know that my thoughts are with you.
Dale had something positive to say about every day. He inspired us all to laugh and enjoy the moments together. We will miss you dear neighbor! Our sincere sympathy to Jean and family. Jim and Marleen Zak
