Dad was a very hard working superintendent for Daw, Inc./Daw Construction Group retiring in 2004. He was a master carpenter and could build anything.

Dee had many hobbies and was good at all of them.

He used to chase and capture wild horses in the desert that he would tame. He was also a jockey.

Dee enjoyed the outdoors and camping with his family. He was an avid hunter and an incredible marksman and fisherman.

The Wardle Family Reunion was one of Dee’s favorite events every year. He loved his family very much and looked forward to the time they spent together.

Every year Grumpa Dee would fill Easter eggs with money and would have a hunt for his grand-children and on Christmas Eve he had a present for each of them. They all looked forward to the gifts he would give!

Dee loved his gaming chickens where he made life-long friends.
