Service: 12 p.m. Wednesday at Moore Funeral Home, 1219 N. Davis Dr., Arlington, 76012. Interment: Moore Memorial Gardens.
Dale was born October 4, 1927 in Cooper, Texas to Paul and Vergie Lamb.
He enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1945 and served honorably for two years. He was discharged as a 2nd Lieutenant, was part of the 11th Airborne Division, and served in Japan.
After he came back to the United States, Dale had several jobs including working for Lone Star Gas Company and Williamson-Dickie Manufacturing Company. During that time, he also attended Texas Christian University and obtained his Bachelor of Science in Commerce Degree in 1951 and his Master of Business Administration Degree in 1960. In 1956, he joined Gearhart-Owen Industries as a Business Manager and Controller. He retired from Go International, formally Gearhart-Owen Industries, after many years of dedicated service as Senior Executive Vice President.

Dale married the love of his life, Claudine Holland, on September 22, 1948. Together they raised three boys and had many happy years together until Claudine's passing in 2016.
In his spare time, Dale enjoyed bowling, playing 42, reading, but mostly playing golf at Ridglea Country Club where he made three holes-in-one. He can be described as an incredibly intelligent man with a kind demeanor and good sense of humor. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
Dale was preceded in death by his wife, Claudine Lamb; his oldest son, John D. Lamb; and numerous brothers and sisters.
Survivors: sons, David A. Lamb and Paul D. Lamb; 5 grandchildren; 4 great-grandchildren; caregiver, Twila Hughes; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
