Janet Faye Dale, born Oct. 8, 1941, in San Diego, California, to Arthur and Agnes Armstrong, passed away at home from Parkinson’s disease June 26, 2022, in Tooele, Utah, at the age of 81.
Janet attended high school at Hoover High School in San Diego, California, Weber State University, and Brigham Young University in Utah, and Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California. She married Arnold Ernest Dale on Sept. 26, 1968. They had three children: Arnold Dale, born Feb. 22, 1971; Marisa Dale, born Oct. 27, 1973;, and Terry Dale, born June 18, 1977.
Arnold lovingly referred to Janet as “babe,” and if he was upset with her and didn’t call her “babe,” she would say to him “If you don’t start calling me babe again, I will start calling you Arnold instead of Arnie!” You could always tell when she was excited, it was something she had done since she was little. She would start walking around on her tip toes as she was telling you something she was happy or excited about.
Janet was a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. She loved visiting national parks and was an excellent photographer. She was a loving, thoughtful, and caring person who will be missed by many.
She is survived by her husband, Arnold Dale, her three children, her grandchild Yogi Dale, and her sister Susan Nixon.
Funeral service was held Wednesday, July 6, 2022, at Tate Mortuary. Interment was at the Tooele City Cemetery.
