Although I didn't know Dale, I am a fellow rider. My wife and I are praying continuously for your family.
I have lots of fond memories of the 70's as Dale was my very best friend.We rode dirt bikes,road bikes & snowmobiles together.Our longest trip was to Portland Ore.and back.I have lots of priceless memmories of that trip.Dale ask me to stop over to their house on Grant during visitation for Joes funeral.I regret I just didn't take the time to do that. I am so very very saddened at this time,and extend my simpathy to Barb,Niel,& June the children,and the entire family.Keith Hoffman
Even though our daily lives have grown in different directions over the past years it seems like yesterday we were kids playing together on almost a daily basis in Hesperia. It is so hard to loose family that has been so close,especially in your childhood years, first Joe and now Dale, it is so hard to accept. The memories of growing up with Dale and Joe run so deep,we will miss Dale so very much. Our prayers and thought are with Barb, Jason, Chad, Sandy, Aunt June & Uncle Neil.

Dale Kennedy was a wonderful man, and I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity
to know him and work with him for so many years. He was a terrific problem-solver. Whenever there was a mechanical issue that we needed to work through, Dale could come up with a solution. He could take the lead and yet act as a partner and a coach. Oftentimes solutions were simple to Dale. He was experienced, creative and eager to learn new things. Sometimes we’d get out a physics book or the machinist's handbook to look up formulas, and I fondly remember Dale referring to this as “cyferring”. His work ethic was exemplary, and he made an immeasurable contribution to a small, growing company. He was incredibly honest and I trusted him completely. He was a mentor to many. He was humble and considerate.
Dale was interested in anything and everything that might make him a better marksman, bow hunter or target shooter. He has shared his experience with so many and our lives have been touched by his enthusiasm. I have never met Dale’s boys, but he beamed whenever he talked about them, and he was very proud of what terrific young men his sons have become. I loved to share stories with him about my own children as they are growing up, and he was always a good listener. I will deeply miss my friend and colleague.
Neil & June,
We were sorry to hear about Dale's
passing and offer our condolences. We live in Florida now and our twin 15 year old daughters started summer courses at Polk Community College, Monday; so we can not come to his funeral. Our prayers are with you.

BARB, I HAVE BEEN SO HEARTBROKEN AND SAD FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. I ALWAYS ENJOYED BEING AROUND YOU AT WORK. I PRAY GOD HOLDS YOU IN HIS LOVING ARMS AND SOMEHOW GIVES YOU COMFORT IN THIS VERY SAD TIME. FREDA HAAKSMA RN MERCY HOSPITAL.
We didn't know Dale but are friends with Carter & Michelle & we too have friends who are riders and who have lost their lives doing so. We are also acquainted with the painful grief of sudden loss. Our hearts and prayers have been with you since we heard and will continue to be as you endure this very difficult time. LeeAnn McCaig, Atlanta
