On January 22, 2024, Colin Dale, 41, of Excelsior Springs, Missouri, passed away in Denver, Colorado. Colin was born on November 22, 1982 in Kansas City, Missouri, to Deborah Lee and Larry Dale.<\/p>\n

Colin grew up in Excelsior Springs where he began his love of sports, including baseball, football, wrestling and golf, before moving to Kansas City to attend the Pembroke Hill School.

Colin was an adventure seeker, outdoor enthusiast, music and animal lover. From skydiving to deep sea fishing, The Doors and many cats and dogs in between, Colin enjoyed these experiences, lyrics and furry companions.

Debbie, Sarah, I am so very sorry for your loss. May you have strength and comfort as you face the grief of losing sweet Colin. My heart breaks for you all.

Dear Colin’s family & friends,
\nI was a foreign exchange student in Pembroke during Colin’s junior year, and I’m so devastated after learning what happened… We were together on the wrestling team that ended up undefeated that year. I have so many fond memories with Colin from that year, in 1999-2000.
\nI would like to extend my most sincere condolences to his family and friends. My deepest thoughts and prayers go to Colin and his family.
\nSincerely,
\nCam Cambay<\/p>\n

Colin was my teammate on the PHS wrestling team in 2001. I was a Freshman and he was a Senior. I will always remember Colin for his kindness and sense of humor. My deepest condolences to his family.
\nAndrew<\/p>\n

So very sorry for this loss. I know this is very hard and I know how proud of him you were.
\nTom Gray<\/p>\n

I am so sorry to hear of Colin’s passing. The last time I saw him he was only 3 or 4 years old when you lived next door to us. He was a little sweetie as was his sister. My prayers are with you and your family.
\nSteve Schwarz<\/p>\n

Larry, Sarah,\u00a0 Debby & family,
\nI am so sorry to learn of the passing of your dear son\/brother.\u00a0 My heart goes out to you as you maneuver your way through this grief.
\nI didn\u2019t know Colin, but I can see that he was a handsome and very capable\/gifted young man.
\nYour loss is great.
\nPlease know that people who know and care for you also hold you in their prayers. This certainly includes me!\u00a0 God bless you.
