Dale Sr was a very influential person in my life. As a young boy spending hours upon hours at the Grimm house, I was able to witness that work ethic all the time, and I know that it helped shape my own. Mr and Mrs Grimm were always supportive of all of his children’s friends. Even when he may have seemed ‘stearn’ I always knew it was because he was teaching us to be upstanding young men. I’ll never forget when we were helping on a roofing job and I had no idea what I was doing, and his patience finally ran out, and that bark came out! Or the one-liner sayings. Thank you for all the life lessons, Mr. Grimm, I’ll miss you.
