Re: Orin Dale Pearman R.I.P.

To all-It been a while since i've been on the board.When i heard of Dale Pearman's passing i wanted to way in.I met Dale first on this board and then at Bloomington in person.He was one of those people who are just the way you picture them just by their writings.I'll never forget the impromtu Discussion Board meeting a Mid-America's table in Bloomington.Mike Yager from Mid-America came over and probably would have thrown us out but Dale interceded and the meeting went on to conclusion.He was a great guy and we enjoyed several Loud dinners a Bloomington.He was one of a kind. Godspeed,R.I.P Lou Lapham

Yes, Lou.....

I agreee....I also met Dale on this board and two years ago had the pleasure meeting him in person, along with Tom Barr. Dale was one of a kind, going out of his way to help another member. His presence will be sorely missed.

Dale had the quickest witt...

and the greatest sense of humor of anyone I ever met. At times I wasn't sure if Dale was on the level or as you said, blowing smoke up my leg. I will never forget the laughs that we shared on this board.
