I was saddened to hear of Dale's home going -for myself - not for her. She is safe in the arms of Jesus now, who welcomed her Home to her room in His mansion and now she knows no pain. My condolences to her family. I met Dale & her mother through my daughter Debbie, who took to her immediately. I could see why. I did too. Dale shall be missed for a long long time.

I saw this and it made my heart ache. It has been several years but you never forget the good people you meet in this journey we call life. Much love to the Hutchins' family, my old neighbors from Newington Plantation in Summerville, SC. That smile will live on forever.

Our hearts go out to Robert & the entire Rikard and Hutchins Family. Dale truly had the smile and personality that always made you feel like she had just seen you the day before no matter how long it had been
since she had seen you. She was most definitely loved & admired by the strength & courage she showed, Dale was a special young lady as although its been said by others she deserves for it to be repeated again and again, "Dale was beautiful inside and out" She will be missed dearly and our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

To all the family,
I have the fondest memories of Dale from all the Corley Christmas parties. I would tell a story and she grabbed me, rolled those gorgeous eyes and wouldn't stop laughing.
She will surely be missed but remember her for the beautiful and happy soul she was. So so caring. I will pray for all of you in the days to come. I know family was her life. Stay strong Robert!!
Love Tracey Mathias Owen

I am so grateful that I had the pleasure of knowing Dale, working with her and her ever present smile. Dale's heart of gold was offered to all, she was a very loving and giving person and will be missed terribly. My prayers and thoughts go out to Robert, her children, the Hutchins and Rikards family. I pray that they will find peace just knowing that she is now in the hands of GOD and not suffering, nor no longer is she
in pain. Dale was always just a ray of sunshine that brightened a room when she walked in, a very beautiful woman in every way.
