    Shane, Cory, Tyler, I am so very sorry for your loss. I always loved your granddad. He will always have a special place in my heart. He always brought American flags, buckeyes, or whatever I asked of him to my kindergarten children thru the years. What a great memory of him. I last saw him when we were both at Calcutta Health Care recuperating and we would chat daily.

    This makes me very sad to find. I am Dale's nephew, Charles Ryan Barnhart my father was his brother Charles Arthur Barnhart. My wife and are planning a trip to Youngstown and I was searching to see where any my father's siblings may be when I stumbled upon this obituary. I never got the chance to meet my uncle Dale only spoke to him a few times over the phone. My deepest sympathy to all that his loss may have impacted. I am hoping someday soon to meet my remaining aunts and uncles.
