He was a member of the Platt Duetsche, a life member of the NRA and an avid supporter of Friends of NRA and Pheasants Forever. In his retirement he enjoyed collecting old tools and antiques and spending time with his morning coffee group at Tommy’s Restaurant.
Dale adored all of the many cats and dogs that called their farm home. To make naming all of the cats easier Dale’s family would often use tool names or pop brands. Dale was a devoted Husker fan and enjoyed attending a few football games.
