Dale Allen Unger, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend passed away peacefully at his home in Yellville, Arkansas on October 11, 2024. He was born on August 25, 1952 to Joseph Jr. and Isabella "Sis" Unger in Chicago, Illinois.

In 1974, Dale made the move to Yellville, where he dedicated many years of his life as a diesel mechanic at Ranger Boats, from which he retired. A true outdoorsman, he found joy in fishing, hunting, camping and skiing. His love for Christmas and family gatherings was evident in the way he cherished time spent around the dinner table with loved ones.

Dale was a proud volunteer mechanic at the Pine Mountain Fire Department. Known for his onery nature, he brought laughter and joy to those around him, often playing the role of jokester and prankster.

Dale is survived by his two daughters, Jennifer McCoy (Chris) of Yellville, AR and LaRea Miller (Jeff) of Lakeview, AR. He is also survived by his brother, Dennis Wild of Wilmington, IL and sister, Tammy Clinton (Jim) of Richey, MT. His legacy continues through his seven grandchildren, Bryan Osborn (Kerri) of Yellville, AR, Daniel Hannah (Bre) of Joplin, MO, Emri Hannah of Birmingham, AL, Timothy McCoy of Flippin, AR, Wesley Miller of Lakeview, AR and Auston Miller of Lakeview, AR, along with Lillian McCoy of Flippin, AR. He is also survived by two great-grandchildren, Kerriana Moore of Yellville, AR and Paisley Hannah of Joplin, MO and several loving nieces and nephews.

Dale was preceded in death by his loving wife, Carla Unger; his parents, Joseph Jr. and Isabella "Sis" Unger and his brother, Ted Wild.
