Eleanor and Family, We are sorry to hear about Dale. Jack and I remember how kind and helpful Dale was to us when we first moved to Isanti. We were young and Jack had few home owner skills. He really appreciated Dale. We are not in Minnesota, so we will not be with you at this time of sadness. God bless you and the kids.
