My father, Terry, was a good friend of Dale's. They played in multiple bands together and Dale was in his wedding party. Through Dale, my dad was able to meet Mr. Canham whom he said was a very nice man. My dad and I were also able to get to know Mrs. Canham and her son, George, through a stroke support group. Our hearts are with this lovely family.
