In Loving Memory of Marvin "Dale" Pearson

Marvin "Dale" Pearson

General Manager- In Memory

On October 6th 2014, Dale was taken from us by Surprise. For more than a decade, Dale was the Epitome of Hard Work, Commitment, Loyalty, Generosity and Kindness. There is nothing that he wouldn't do for his personal family and his work family. We all morn his loss, but, in faith, we know that we will be reunited with him again- to laugh with him and talk about restoring classic cars and motorcycles, over a plate of barbecue. Dale is severely missed...
