Dale joined the US Navy which took him to California where he met Lonna Jean Nelson. It was love at first sight and they married in Seaside, California, on November 6, 1965. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Los Angeles LDS Temple.
A collector of bears, he once put his collection in the cupboards for hibernation. He loved Disneyland and enjoyed taking Lonna there to relive their youth.

For many years, he was an ordinance worker in the LDS temple.
