I miss you dearly, my friend. It's been 5 years since you left your Earthly home. On some days it seems like a lifetime and others it seems like just yesterday that Sam called to share the sad news of your death. You, MaryClare and myself, the "Three Musketeers", or was it "Stooges"? I hope the two of you are keeping an eye on me and Dick, or just maybe Dick!!! I love you, Dale, and miss our chats and special times together.🥲❣

5 years ago heaven received a new angel. I miss her terribly 💔

Oh, how I miss you my dear friend.  We shared many good, bad and ugly times.  That's what came with our friendship....it was all or nothing and I treasure each and every moment.  Wherever you are, I'm sure that you and my sweet Heather are now sharing those memories.  The pain of losing you both is lessened ever so slightly by knowing that having loved you made me a better person.  Thank you for being my friend, Dale.  I love you so much!

I miss my dear Trump supporter friend. We shared so many wonderful memories together. We were unstoppable. I love you, Dale.  I felt her soul come to me, to say goodbye. Rest In Peace.

Love, Barbara Dunn


I’m still shocked. Dale and Denise were the first two ladies I met when I bought a house in Myrtle  Beach. The laughter Dale created in others will not be forgotten. Loved her political passion. Will miss her smiling face and laughter!!  

I first met Dale nearly 40 years ago in Washington DC when she was working for Westinghouse and I was a foreign correspondent for a British newspaper covering the Falklands War. She was truly an amazing young woman, once met - never forgotten. I might almost say a one-off - full of original ideas about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I learned a great deal from her and it was a true blessing that our paths crossed. I am certain many, many others feel the same.   I was on an assignment many years later in the United States,  when she was married and  living in Tulsa.  I was on the West Coast and she said "We must have lunch.  How about we meet half way"?  So we both separately  flew to Dallas and spent a delightful afternoon which included a shopping trip to a very up-market jewellery store.  She bought herself a very, very expensive brooch.  "What do you think, Michael?"  "Fabulous" I replied.  And how true.  Dale WAS fabulous.  She is at Peace and I will never forget her.

Dale Barlow Welch Ranney: Esteemed colleague, a good friend who lived her one amazing life to the fullest. She sought & found true love, became a mother to her beloved daughter, Samantha, which was the deepest desire of her heart, was a successful business woman and passionate political activist. She enjoyed cultivating friendships & hosting fun social gatherings with her many girlfriends! RIP Dale. Your memory is a blessing to all who knew you. ”

It has only been a few years since we first met. But it doesn’t take long to be swept away by your effervescent personality always With a smile to share. It was obvious to me what a beacon you were to a wonderful group of ladies that I had come to know during my short visits to Myrtle in the summer months. What I enjoyed even more were the heart to heart conversations we had over the past 2 years while I lived in Italy. We had a common understanding of what it meant to be night owls and to be perceived as always happy with tons of friends. But we must all remember that what we show to the world is not always as wonderful as it might seem. So I challenge everyone to hear this and be there for even the one who appears to be shining the brightest because you do not truly know the hurt and darkness that is sometimes hidden away.
Love you, Boomer
Sweet dreams my friend and peaceful rest.

It’s difficult to put into words the warmth and wonder that was Dale. Vivacious, friendly, and extremely funny, she left an indelible mark on anyone she encountered. Boomer, the world will not be the same without you in it, but I am forever grateful for the gift that your presence was in our lives. 

I will miss your beautiful smile and endless enthusiasm for life at the beach. I will treasure my leopard print chocolate shoe and all the fabulous memories with you. May you fly high and free sharing your contagious laughter wherever you are.

Always in our hearts,
Jeff and Valerie Clarke

“You can shed tears that she is gone or you can smile because she has lived”.  It’s not easy for me, but I’m choosing to try and smile. 

                                                           FLEETING
What we hear; can it be?
Only  memory fragments and images are left for us to feel and see.
At this end... unanswered is why you said goodbye.
Did your time move so much faster and pass us by?
At this end... are you now just a spirit in the sky?
