Dale Robert Foster passed away May 1st, 2015 at the age of 69, at home surrounded by his wife, family and friends. He was a devoted family man who cherished his time with his family and grandchildren. He loved his professional work and was blessed with a company that loved him back. His tender heart made him a friend to many people and will be sorely missed. He loved fishing when the time allowed and treasured his son-in-laws for their friendship and closeness. Everybody mattered to him and he never met a person he didn’t find good in. Always smiling, always accepting, that was this wonderful man and as his wife, I was blessed to have had him as my soul mate. He accepted me for all my faults and always supported me. He has left a hole in our hearts.
Dale is survived by his wife, Ann, his daughters, Laura Pate (Foster), Becky Cummings (Foster), his son-in laws Roger Cummings, and Randy Pate, his siblings, Anne Nott(Foster), Ronald Foster, Jean Hutchison (Foster) Jane Blake(Foster), his grandchildren Pierce and Miriam Cummings, and Sophia Pate and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. He is predeceased by his mother, Mary Elizabeth Foster (Holmes) and Alvin L Foster. Per his wishes, his body was cremated and a memorial gathering will be held at his home from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 30th, 2015.
