To Dale’s Family;
I am So Shocked To Hear About Dale’s Passing. I Had No Idea She Was Sick. Such A Lovely Lady. So Kind And Friendly. I Will Always Remember When Dale Fell Down On Main Street And I Ran To Help Her Up. I Took Her Into Pharmasave To Make Sure She Was Ok. And Made Her Stay There Till I Went To Go Get My Car. She Was Pretty Shaken Up But Was Visibly Ok.. I Took Her Home And I Worried About Her All Night. So The Next Morning I Called Her To Make Sure She Was Ok. And She Was. Grant You That Was A Few Years Ago, But It Had Shaken Me Up As Well. I Loved This Lady And I Will Surely Miss Her Terribly. I Was Always Bumping Into Her Somewhere Down Town. We Use To Stop & Chat Then On Our Way Home We Would Go. Please Except My Deepest Condolences, I Want You To Know Just How Much This Lady Loved Her Family, She Was Always Saying Such Great Things About Her Children. May Dale Rest In ETERNAL Peace. And May God Be With You All At This Most Terrible Time In Your Lives.
Sincerely:
Peggy Payzant!!!

I met her through the Queens General Hospital Auxiliary and she was a huge help to me when I stepped in to take over her position as treasurer. She had been treasurer for over 20 years and had done an upstanding job indeed. Her soft spoken ways, kind heart and sincerity touched me deeply. She will be sadly missed by all. God Bless
