Dale Edward Hester, 80, of Eagle Rock, California, passed away on March 12, 2024. He was born to Donald Hester and Florence Stecher on April 4, 1943, in Hamilton, Ohio.

His legacy continues with his daughter Jeannette; stepdaughter Sheri; granddaughters Paris, Stephanie, and Brooke; great-grandchildren Isaiah, Mia, Angelo, and Olivia; sister Nancy, brother Mike, and numerous nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by his parents and his sisters Sharon and Sylvia. Dale was an artist who enjoyed spending time in all of God's creation and wonder. He was a Renaissance man who had innumerable talents and knowledge in countless areas.

For anyone who knew Dale, he was not afraid of a good debate. If you had time and the resolve he would walk you through the inner workings of politics, religion, science, art, astrology, cars, music, and so much more.  He was a brilliantly beautiful mind and anyone who he interacted with during his 73 years in Eagle Rock could tell you great stories about him. 

Lastly and most importantly, Dale knew and loved God with all of his heart.

He was loved deeply by his family and he will be truly missed.

We would love for people to leave comments about Dale so our family will be able to read the great stories about him and see just how many people he impacted.
