Has anyone seen / heard from Tahoe Dale?

Dale and I would regularly correspond, and would do meet and greets at the occasional Long Beach Show. He helped me get the Capped Bust Half I purchased for my type set two years ago, and that's the last contact I had with him.

    I met with him at the Baltimore show last March. Hitting on all cylinders then.

    Some refer to overgraded slabs as Coffins. I like to think of them as Happy Coins.

    He looked good at the ANA - not much here for a serious numismatist like Dale. :D

    He still loves talking coins, but laments seeing so few he likes.

    Gotta love a guy that goes shopping with his wife.

    Spent a bunch of quality time with him at the ANA as well, talking Bust Dollars. Definitely one of the good ones (along with a few people who've contributed to this thread)...

    I've seen and talked with Dale, most recently at ANA.

    Thanks for the input, guys. When you get old and you don't hear from someone you've been in touch with for awhile, you being to wonder if he / she is all right.
