His caring nature and quick wit will be missed by all who knew him.

Dale is survived by his fiancee, Laurie Kidd; his children, Daniel Grandt, Matthew (Courtney) Grandt, and Sara (Adam) Wood; his grandchildren, Tenley, Hayden, Hawkins, Brayden, Bentley, Lauren, and grandsons he considered as his own; his siblings, Gary (Jan) Grandt, Keith Grandt, Rodney (Gayle) Grandt, Lori (Todd) Halvorson, Lyle (Cherie) Grandt, and Brian (Stacy) Grandt.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Eunice and Lawrence.

A visitation will be held on Thursday, February 25th from 9 to 11 a.m. at St. Paul’s Lutheran church, followed by a memorial service. The service may be viewed online at https://client.tribucast.com/tcid/730259318
