Dale Edward Oppedal was born in rural Walnut Township, Palo Alto County, on Aug. 24, 1926, to Iver and Zelda (Prichard) Oppedal. Three years later his father purchased a farm located one and one half miles north of Lost Island Lake. The farm would be Dale’s home for most of the remaining years of his life. It was a place he truly loved and one that he always sought to improve.
