Dear Barbara,
Though I met Dale through business many years ago, we became very close friends. When he came to Michigan on business, a majority of our time was spent talking about our families, and our personal interests. He loved talking about you Shawn, Chad, and your grandchildren.
I learned so much from him, he made a huge difference in my life, and I will miss him.
My sincerest condolences to you and your family.

To Dale’s family:
I had the honor of serving with Dale in the 193rd Special Operations Group.  He exemplified the profession of arms as few did; he was courageous, skilled and dedicated.  His loyalty to family, friends and America was a credit to himself and the nation he loved so dearly.
Please accept my sincere condolences on his passing.  The world is poorer without him.
With deepest sympathy,
Phil Friday

God bless you Dale,
I will miss talking to you! Dale would always tell me about his son in Mexico and the Whiskey he was trying to get branded! He was very proud of his children and family.

Dear Mrs Landis and Family,
While only knowing Dale for the past year and a half, it has been a pleasure working with him. Our company has been working with him to develop sales and our team has worked side by side with him.  We have found him to be a consumate professional with a lot of wisdom both in business and life.  We are sorry our relationship with Dale was so short but we are blessed to have had the opportunity to know and work with him.  
Our deepest sympathy to you and your sons.

Barbara and family,
Our sincere condolences to you and the family.  I worked with Dale for almost 30 years and considered him a good friend.  Enjoyed the times skiing out west in Colorado and Utah (many, many years ago).  He was a great organier and the master chef cooking the turkey and ham for lunch during the ski trips.   He loved his family and often would talk about how the boys were doing.  I talked to to him many times about his days as a pilot and his rugby matches.  He was an important part of the success of Giorgi Foods and will be missed by all.  Our prayers are with you and the family at this sad time.

My sincere condolences to the Landis family.  Dale was one of the “good guys” that I had the pleasure to know and work with over the past 25+ years.  I first met Dale in Germany, when as a client for the Giorgio company, he came to visit and work with me and my team.  We quickly developed a friendship!   I had so much respect for Dale, particularly for his extreme kindness, professionalism, and in the manner he treated his fellow man.   On behalf of my company, my colleagues, and my family,  our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.   RIP my good friend, you’ll be missed!   –   Ken Cass, Overseas Service Corporation.

Dear Barb,
I was sorry to hear of Dale’s passing. I didn’t know him that well, but I will always remember, how friendly he was, when we met and talked briefly, at the Class reunion, last fall. My prayer is that God will give you and your family, strenght in the future, as you grieve your loss.

Barbara,
I will always remember and appreciate the kindness and consideration that you and Dale showed me following my mishap “down-under” a few years ago.  Dale was one of the great ones, without whom a whole generation of aging ruggers would not exist.

Dale Landis was a prince of a man! I worked as an account executive on the Giorgio brand in Northern California for over 20 years! He was a man dedicated to Giorgio Foods but most of all loved his outside interests including family, friends, rugby, football, and his boys! A quiet man with a real sense of humor! I have many fond members of our time together. He was a soft sell and loved by all. A quiet man with a great “chukle”. I will miss him but he made a lasting imprint on my soul. May God Bless his Family and Friends! Rest in Peace! Sincerely, Clyde LeBaron (San Francisco)

We will all miss him terribly here at Giorgio.  He was always a bright spot in our office.  i was lucky enough to be in his email chain and i always looked forward to his political jokes and jabs.  The election won’t be the same without him.  Such a truly good guy.

Dear Barbara:
The news of Dale’s passing obviously came as a surprise to me. Very sad news indeed. My sincerest and deepest feelings of sympathy to you and your family.
I enjoyed being one of Dale’s rugby buddies at Penn State in the 1960s, and I have always respected him for his commitment and loyalty to Penn State Rugby. The Golden Oldies Rugby Tournaments with Dale and other Penn State Rugby alums were always very special. So many wonderful memories. Dale loved the game of rugby, and he thoroughly enjoyed the cameraderie of teammates and opponents – for which rugby is so well known.
Dale was a true friend. I am going to miss seeing him on campus for our rugby and other events.
God bless you and your family.
