Dale Wysong

Mr. M. Dale Wysong, long time resident of Farwell, Michigan passed away peacefully at home on Thursday, October 3, 2019 surrounded by his family. Dale was born in Pennville, Indiana on August 17, 1931. He moved to the Farwell area in 1941. He graduated from Farwell High School in 1949 and married his high school sweetheart, Betty Fra Somers on September 9, 1950.
Dale was a man of many talents; construction, welding, electrical work, horse shoeing and trimming, to name a few. Early in his adult life he gave his heart to Jesus and joined the Gilmore Church of Christ. He was one of the core members of the Farwell Church of Christ, when the Gilmore Church expanded.
He was well known in the community for his love for the outdoors and was an avid hunter, trapper and fisherman. He coached little league ball when his boys were young and was a good teacher and role model to many.
Dale loved life! He woke up singing in the morning, he loved to dance, he loved a good Western on TV, he loved his cowboy hats, he loved babies and pizza. Most of all, he loved the Lord, his wife, children, and grandchildren, and being a part of their lives.
Dale is survived by his loving wife of 69 years, Betty Fra Wysong, four daughters; Cheryl (Doug) Allan of Farwell, DaleAnn (Gary) Montague of Lake, Jan (Bruce) Owens of Farwell, Holly LaBelle of Farwell, one son, Troy (Jennifer) Wysong of Midland, 18 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren.
