My sincerest condolences to the Godwin family. Dale and I went from grade school all the way through high school. My fondest memories was at the American Legion Hut on Thursdays when our families met up there to play bingo. His dad actually worked there part time. Dale was kind and will be greatly missed.

To the Godwin family, Dale and I were classmates and I enjoyed our heated discussions on FB. I called him my favorite Pot Stirrer. Dale had such a great heart and soul. He loved you all so much. When he found out about Kash he was head over heels and i know he felt the same about you all. He loved you all fiercely and would do anything for you all. But I think many of his classmates remember him helping us too in many ways. A smile. A dollar. A ride. A shoulder. Dale was a great man and a true American Hero. I was Blessed to know him. I know he will be missed, But God’s Military just grew and it’s even better than ever. I pray you all find peace knowing Dale is with his dad and other friends and family looking down on you all. He will be missed. I am sorry I can’t come to the funeral, but I will be there in spirit. Fly High Dale! You will be missed. See ya on the other side.
