Dale died peacefully on December 11th, 2020, at the age of 68. Dale was a gentle soul who will be greatly missed for his ready smile, warmth, generosity and loyalty to family and friends.
Dale, the youngest of three sons, was born in Kamloops, where his parents moved following their forced relocation to Kaslo in 1941. Up to Grade 10 in Kamloops, and later in West Vancouver, Dale forged many close friendships that lasted a lifetime. Dale, ever young at heart, also treasured his relationships with his beloved niece and nephews, who, in turn, valued him as a special person in their lives.
Like his eldest brother, Robert, Dale was a lawyer. He practiced in several settings, but a highlight was a two-year assignment in Tokyo. It not only let him experience a different legal system, but also deepened his interest in and appreciation for Japanese culture and food.
