I graduated from New Haven High School class of 1957, same as Dale. Dale and I were on the same basketball team, as was his younger brother Al. (Fritz). Dale was an easy going, no-nonsense, laid back type guy. Everybody loved Dale. At the Hermann's family farm, they had a basketball hoop inside their barn where a group of us guys would gather to practice shooting skills. I talked with Dale at our last class reunion. He mentioned that Joan wasn't doing too good, that she had bad days and good days. I believe all of us attendees could relate to that. Rest in peace ole' friend. I am sad to know you are gone.
