The family would like to thank Dr. Nandra for her continued support during his final years. The Homecare Support Team of Port Alberni for their loving care. Dale looked forward to the camaraderie and encouragement they showed to him during every visit.

As per Dale’s wishes there will be no service. In lieu of flowers a donation to Parkinsons, diabetes, cancer or any charity of your choice would be appreciated.

Thank you all for your love, support and comfort during this difficult time. Dale always had a smile for everyone and a twinkle in his eye and he will be surely missed.
