Thomas J. Dale

Thomas J. Dale, age 84 of Denver, PA, passed away on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, while surrounded by his loving family at Ephrata Community Hospital. Thomas was the husband of Melanie Wagner Dale, with whom he shared over 40 beautiful years with, including 28 years of marriage.

Tom attended West Catholic High School. He went on to own his own companies, Modern Home Insulators and Dale Waterproofing Systems. Tom successfully owned and operated his construction companies for 59 years.

Family was most important to Tom in life. He was an incredibly devoted husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. His grandchildren will most remember all the fun times spent together boating in the Delaware, Easter egg hunting, riding horses and ATVs at the ranch, flying drones, playing with his new gadgets, exploring the beautiful waters and beaches around Anna Maria Island, and enjoying time celebrating special occasions as a family.

Tom looked at life with the glass half full and radiated positivity. Through good times and bad, Tom was resilient. He had a high moral compass and never strayed from his principles. Tom was the patriarch of a family that will never be the same without him but will always carry on his legacy and live life to the fullest, just as Tom did.

In addition to his wife, Melanie, Tom is survived by his children, Linda Nave (Ron), Tom Dale, Jr., Sue Crane (Rick), Carolyn Branscome (Geoff); grandchildren, Scott, Pam, Beth, Sarah, Katie, Julia, Amanda, Marlie; step-grandchildren, Jason and Julie; great grandchildren, Mackenzie, Hailey, Nolan and A.J; as well as his brother, Michael.
