Dale was my first boss (including his friend and business partner, Todd) when I started off in the IT industry.
I consider Dale as one of my mentors in life. When we talked about technology or even life in general, Dale would always give me amazing advice. After I left that first job, Dale and I would keep in touch over the years and he would always be considerate and glad to hear what I was currently doing. Dale will be missed dearly.

I am so grateful to Dale and all of the support he gave me and my parents when my dad was sick. Dale was so friendly to everyone and you immediately felt like family to him. He will be missed but I know he will be reunited with his love Pasha.

My sincere condolences to the Beckles family
We met Dale and Dawn in December 2011 shortly after we moved to Niagara on the Lake
I moved to Toronto in July 2022 and our granddaughter was born on Dale’s birthday that year. He was so thrilled and opened a bottle of Veuve Cliquot to celebrate her arrival.
Dale was so kind and supportive to me after my husband went into Long Term Care and we would often have chats when I went on my morning walks and he was out tending to the garden
Sadly we did not see one another once we moved to Toronto to be close to our children and granddaughter but we kept in contact and he always was pleased to see photos of our granddaughter
He had a wonderful personality and was such a caring human being
Rest in peace Dale I will always remember your kindness and concern and will always have a glass of champagne in your honour on July 14
Sincerely
Pauline Pankewich

My heart goes out to all of Dale's family and friends for this unexpected, tragic news, especially hard since there was no warning.
Dale was one of my oldest and dearest friends. I have countless wonderful memories that span over 35 years.
Dale was the type of friend you could always count on: dependable, generous, smart, hard working, funny and sometimes silly. The last time I saw him was in Toronto May 28, 2023. We stopped for lunch at Yorkdale Mall on the way to the airport and he couldn't remember where he parked his car. (So unlike him) It was one of the last things I could tease him about for the following year. It never occurred to me that would be our last time together.
I'm forever thankful for his unconditional love and friendship.
He will be sorely missed and never forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to be in his life. My heartfelt condolences to the Beckles and Nash family and all of his friends.
Unfortunately I can't attend the service as I am living in Spain. I am hoping there will be an online service so I can attend virtually.
Bastille Day will never be the same. RIP my dear friend I will never forget you.

You have been one of my most dear friends for my entire adult life and I will miss you terribly. I am sending my sincerest condolences to your family Dale. You were one of those truly special people that made anybody you were with feel amazing. Your big personality, your laugh, your smile, great stories...you were just that person that everybody wanted to be around. You were always the person I called when I needed a pep talk - even if you sometimes dealt me some tough love. LOL
I will never forget you. I will carry you forever with me in some of my most favourite memories...like teaching me to kite - you were soooo patient with me! And you were such a big part of me falling in love with the ocean. Actually, it is 100% because of you that I fell in love with the sea! I won't ever forget incredible blackened Mahi Mahi picnic dinners at Ho'okipa beach. Or Oistin's Fish Market...or even just riding along the water in Niagara. And of course you always had that goofy side to you - as seen in the photo above. I sure won't forget you ad libbing the lyrics and singing random songs mid conversation! Makes me smile to think about it. You were one of a kind Dale. I miss you. Rest in peace my friend.

I first met Dale in the 1980s when he was at the forefront of the emerging computer industry and a colleague of my ex-husband. From the start, he stood out as one of the smartest individuals I have ever encountered and a relentless optimist.
Dale was forever thoughtful, kind, and considerate, traits that remained constant throughout our friendship. Although we couldn’t see each other as often as we’d have like, due to geographical distances, we maintained regular contact by phone, and our conversations always felt as if no time had passed.
Dale's wife, Dawn, was a close friend. I marveled at his stoicism and the incredible care he provided her until she passed…..and how broken-hearted he was losing her, As his family so beautifully put it, "he will now dance with his Pasha again”. Oh my dear, how very sad to lose you so abruptly – I will remember you always….my love to Dawn.

My family were fortunate to know Dale and Dawn as we were neighbours at Lighthouse Point in Collingwood. Dale and his friend Todd were among the original owners there as were we. I was also fortunate to interact with Dale on some of his business ventures. I was always impressed by his energy and the completeness of his character. His love for Dawn and his care for her, including his unrelenting optimism, is something I will never forget. We wish his family much love and will have a thought and a prayer for him.

GRIEF never ends, but it changes. It is a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith. It is the price of Love.
I will miss you terribly my dear friend.

My deepest condolences to Dale's family, I met Dale many years ago when my sister Joey brought him to my parents house for dinner. Immediately I knew he was a cool guy as I spied his Porsche 996 in the driveway. We were introduced and he was nice enough to let me go on talking about cars. The most recent visit was in the summer of 2022, my wife Suzanne and myself visit NOTL 3-4 times a summer. We finally got Dale in the city and arranged to say hi from one of our visits. What was to be a short visit turned into 6+ hours of talking and just enjoying the weather. We will dearly miss his stories and zest for life. We didn't get to see each other often but the times we did were great. He will be Dearly missed.
