I was just 2 and my sister 3 when my Uncle Dale was headed to war. We have a picture where he is holding us, one in each arm in his dress uniform. This is how I remember him. Always knowing what a supreme sacrifice he made for all of us I miss him everyday. I often take care of his plot at the cemetary and have shared this memory with my 2 sons. Our entire family loved and miss Dale constanly. Thanks to all who share their stories about Dale so that this piece of his life can be remembered. Please remember 04/04/41 - 06/27/67. Dale Allen made the most of his life during the "dash" between the two dates. Let us all do the same. Posted by: Kristine Maas, niece
