He is survived by his beloved wife, Sharon Decker; his sisters, Darlene (Rich) Leimbach and Lois (David) DiBiase; and many nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, Dale was preceded in death by other family members who welcomed him into eternal rest.

Dale will be remembered for his dedication to his family, his loyalty to friends, and the enjoyment he found in the outdoors and on the open road. His memory will be treasured by all who knew and loved him.
