As a young man Dale enlisted in the United States Army and after his service went on to work as a counselor for the Multnomah County Justice Department. After his retirement from the Justice Department he enjoyed taking trips fly fishing with friends all over the country.
He was known for his love of jazz music and will be missed by all who knew him. Dale is survived by his loving wife Darlene Badrick; his sons William Badrick and Thomas Badrick; his brother Bruce Badrick; his sisters Nancy Schultz and Suzann Schultz.
Dale will be laid to rest at Willamette National Cemetery in Portland Oregon.
