On Jan. 19, 2021, Papa Angel got his wings. Dale Henry Holyoak was born on May 12, 1929, to Jesse Gilbert Holyoak and Mattie Alberta Blackmore Holyoak in Moab. He was one of four children. Dale shared his childhood with Gilbert and Betty Joyce; Floyd Don passed away shortly before Dale was born.
Dale was a true cowboy in every sense of the word. He started helping herd cows for family and neighbors at just 5 years old. He worked for Swanny Kerby as a young teenager and went on the rodeo circuit competing as both a bareback and saddleback rider. Dale was the first man from Grand County to be drafted into the Korean Conflict and honorably served his nation for two years.
