Dale Howell
Dale C. Howell, age 73, of Celina, went to his heavenly reward on Saturday, October 24, 2020, at Van Wert Health Hospital.
He was born January 31, 1947, in Mercer County, to the late George & Margaret Grile Howell.
He is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Joyce Dale Howell, three daughters: Sharon (Tim) Thompson, Connie Howell, and Brenda (Jason) Daugherty, and two grandsons, Keagan and Grady Daugherty, all of Celina. Also surviving are three brothers & a sister: Joshua (Peggy) Howell, Earl (Alice Ann) Howell, Floyd (Agnes) Howell and Phyllis (Larry) Bradburn, a brother-in-law, Steve Dale and a sister-in-law, Diana (David) Ames.
He was preceded in death by three sisters-in-law: Norma Jean Howell, Wanda Howell, and Portia Barley, and a brother-in-law, John Dale.
A 1966 graduate of Celina High School, Dale served with the U.S. Army in Okinawa during the Vietnam War. Dale was a long-time farmer, and had also been a semi driver for Florence Livestock. After retiring, he began driving for the Amish, which he thoroughly enjoyed.
