Dale E. Beachy, age 68, of Bonduel, passed away on Wednesday, November 23, 2022, in Shawano. Dale was born in Somerset, Pennsylvania on May 12, 1954, to the late Charles "Raymond" and Gladys (Tressler) Beachy. Dale grew up in Fort Hill, Pennsylvania and graduated from Turkey Foot High School in 1972. Most of his life he worked in the restaurant business. When he moved to Bonduel, he began working at Perkins in Shawano.  He retired in 2012. Dale collected many seasonal and holiday items and enjoyed decorating his home for every season and holiday, which was always done very tastefully, with just the right touch. His favorite pastime was going to rummage sales and thrift stores looking for pieces to add to collections that he would showcase in his home.  He also loved flowers and kept a meticulous yard and beautiful flower gardens. He enjoyed inviting people over to walk the yard and enjoy the beautiful flowers.  He could strike up conversation with anyone willing to lend a listening ear and he had a personal story or experience to fit any situation.  His ability to recall the most specific details was amazing.  He loved to cook, and he collected cookbooks and enjoyed trying out new recipes and sharing his fancy desserts with coworkers and friends. Kind and caring, Dale was the kind of man who would do anything for you. He loved each one of the schnauzers he had over the years: Christmas Holly, Christopher Patrick, Princess Diana, Christina Leigh and Little Boy.

Dale is survived by his significant other, Jon Klosterman; two nephews, Gary Kreger and Barry (Chris) Kreger; a great niece; a great nephew; a great-great niece; and special friends, Lisa and Rob Koepp.

He is preceded in death by his parents and brothers and sisters, Betty Petrea, Benjamin Matthews and Dorothy Kreger.

A memorial gathering for Dale will be held on Saturday, December 3, 2022, from 11 am until 2 pm at Swedberg Funeral Home in Shawano.
