Le Milbrandt
So hard to say goodbye to those loved ones who were so influential to us in our youth. Dale and Linda were our neighbors and second parents to all the Holbrook children. Mom (LaVonna) and Dad (Frank) joined Dale and Linda in the frivolity and dancing at the Moose Lodge. Dale and Linda were always gracious with their home(s) and sharing fun and good times on their boat and RV. We have so many special memories of those blessed good times. Ames was a special place to grow up because of the friends who became family that were part of our lives everyday, like Dale and Linda. My heartfelt sympathies to Brian, Tammy, their families, and all those Ames friends at the loss of such a special man. I am sorry I won't be able to attend the services (Dad/Frank still in ICU in Bossier City, LA), but know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of celebrating and grieving. When I told Dad that Dale had passed, he asked what happened and then said, "He was my best friend."
Yours in Christ, Le Milbrant (f/k/a LeAnn Holbrook).
