Dale and his wonderful family were our neighbors on Sandra Way in Midvale for many years. Dale is a great father and husband and lead by his strong example and unwavering faith in our Savoir. Dale faithfully served in many callings in the ward and freely shared his wisdom and knowledge with us, especially, with the "old timers " in the high priests group. Dale has a great legacy and set the bar for us to follow as a father, husband, neighbor and friend. Fred Baird
Dale was one of my missionary companions in the Norwegian Mission in 1961. We knocked on a lot of doors and bore testimony of the Restoration to many Norwegians and others we met as we went door to door. He had a quiet and sincere demeanor and and a possessed a strong conviction of the Work we were engaged in. Dale quickly gained the trust and confidence of those we met. And over time he learned to express himself very well in that wonderful Norwegian language. Those were the days!!!! My sincere condolences to Dale's Family. Don Rogers, Alpine, Utah
Dale has been my friend since I meet him when he was a young missionary in Oslo, Norway. He thought me the gospel of Jesus Christ, and he baptized me on May 31 1961. I was 23 years when that happened. To day I am 81 and we have been friends since 1961. We lost contact for many years, but when we moved to SLC in 1979 we meet with Dale and Jill. Since 1979 we have been in contact on regularly basis. The love we have felt from Dale and Jill has been a great part of our lives. Even thou we live in Oslo, Norway we have felt their love through letters and phone calls. Dale gave me the greatest blessing of all together with his missionary companion Dennis Engh. I am very thankful that Dale came into my life. I have always felt him as one of my best friends. Life is precious, but to know we can be together for ever must be a comfort to Jill and their sons in times like this. Again thankful to this great family we love so much. With respect and love from Margarethe and Per in Oslo, Norway.
I have great memories of Dale and Jill at church, working with Travis taking care of Bruno while they vacationed. I’ll be praying for your peace and comfort. I’m so sorry for your loss. Dale had such a warm smile and kind heart. Dale always showed our family love. We love you and our hearts are with you.
Dale, "Hoot", good friend in high school, ran the Yampa and Green River rivers after high school with other friends. Dale was one of those 'good guys' in school, in life. Always kind, a bit quiet, great to have as a friend!
We were sorry for hearing about Dale's passing. Growing up I lived across the street from the Dale and all his brothers and sisters. We have a lot of fun memories together. He has a special place in our hearts. Our thoughts and prayers go to Jill, and his wonderful family. with love and concern Ray & Janice Tolman
I have such fond memories of Dale through working with him at the Granite School District office where Jill also worked. He was an incredibly kind and gentle man to work for. They were also our neighbors in Midvale. Dale stands out in my life as a person of great faith, integrity, kindness and respect that I will not forget. He will be greatly missed by us. We hope his family will be comforted in the memory of having such a wonderful Husband and Father. We love you Hartvigsen Family. Jean and Ben Zitting
