Dale was bom on July 3,1951, in Bath, Maine, the sixth son of Charles F. Wallace I and Ann-Elizabeth Colby. He grew up in Brunswick, served in the Marine Corps from 1968-1970 then returned to Brunswick. He married Lou Ann Thibodeau in 1974 and together they raised three children.
Dale owned and operated Dale Wallace and Sons Foundations/ Masonry for 35 years. He loved his children unconditionally and spent many happy years coaching them in youth sports, supporting their various activities and attending yearly father-daughter dances. There was nothing he would not do for his children and for that and his love, they are eternally grateful.
Dale was a lifelong supporter of many charitable organizations, always generous to those with less. Dale had a strong will which often served him well. He lived his life his own way. If you ever met Dale, you would remember him.
