I am so sorry to hear of your Dads passing He was always so good to my family He will be greatly missed Our prayers are with you
Sorry to hear about Dale’s passing. We were cousins, but often not so close because of our age difference. Nevertheless, when our paths crossed, Dale was always was always eager to catch up on family connections. He was a community minded person both in and out of government – The kind of politician we could use more of today.
It’s hard to find words to give comfort at this time. To my family … Uncle Dale was a very special person, and the last of that generation to love and guide us. He will be missed by us all. Thinking of my northern kinfolk at this time … sending love across the miles.
I send condolences on behalf of all of my family. My mother, Kathryn Ibsen Norton was Jean’s cousin. Over forty years ago my mother, sister, and our families attended a reunion at Dale and Jean’s Montana ranch. We will always remember the great hospitality of Dale’s family! We remain inspired by Dale’s life and family to this day.
Kent, my condolences to you and the rest of your family. Just remember all the wonderful times you shared and it will get you through.
Sending prayers of love and strength through this difficult time. God bless and thinking of you❤️🙏🏻❤️
