Dale says that he had an increasing desire to be useful to Hospice as a result of his family being served by Hospice during the last days of his wife's life a few years ago. He believes that the more you serve the more you see people at their need. He is always encouraged because people are so welcoming to him in their homes when he comes to visit them. Dale enjoys delivering cookies to patients in their homes while visiting them and sees it as away to give dignity to people in their final days.

Dale encourages people to volunteer because it is equally beneficial to those are being served and those who are serving.
