MARU 5137 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 So I used to correspond with Dale a lot via PM on LSP and sent him hampers to make him smile. His profound humor will be sadly missed as he passed away on 22.3.2021. I have been informed by one of his musician friend who had been given MY details by Dale years ago. Rests in Peace Dale MY good friend. May your Soul be at Peace. No more pain but peace with The Almighty. Amen.

MARU 5137 Posted April 23, 2021 Author Posted April 23, 2021 This is how he was described. Dale was an amazing person, drummer, drum teacher from Sydney, Australia who had a long battle of Leukaemia. Dale quoted on Can-Do Musos "I am fighting hard and doing my best to keep playing"... Rest In Peace Dale. 6 1
