With a clear blue sky and a cool Fall day in South Texas, 100+ friends and family members gathered to plant two large red oak trees. Trees that symbolized independence, protection, bravery, strength, endurance and continuity. Qualities and traits that define Dale's life. Soil from around the USA brought by guests was lovingly added to the planting sites. Blessings were given and then it was done.
Trees planted in honor of the memory of Dale Stover.
PS. And Dad, it wasn't sad or tearful! Just like you wanted it. :)
