Born in Portland Or to Paul and Wilma Marquez on 06-15-1949 passed away on 11-14-2016 at Veterans Hospital due to heart failure.

Dale attended Cleveland High and in his senior year he enlisted in the U. S. Army and was proud to serve his country in Vietnam.

He drove for The Portland Cab Company for many years. A very quiet and private person who never asked for much was always there for his family. Short on words and to the point with a hidden heart of a gentle giant. He never failed to ask about the family and how everyone was doing.

Embracing Dale on the other side, his parents Paul and Wilma Marquez, siblings Sandra, Gene and Donna. He leaves behind sisters Carol, Judy, Roseann, Paula and brother Gary their spouses and 3 generations of nephews and nieces.

With love and heavy hearts we will miss you
