Default Dale Edmonds Passed on 3/25

Next to Dr. Oscar Gaddy, Dale was the master of Damascus refinishing and refinished several sets of Parker barrels for me before he retired from the business about 4 or 5 years ago. Dale was 81 - RIP Dale

I talked with him several times about the time he “retired” or rather quit accepting work and he said he had 3-4 years worth of work to finish up . Wonder if he got it all done ?

Should that be 2-25 instead of 3-25 ?

I saw on another forum that he passed on 2/28. Either way he was good at what he did and was always ready to talk.
