Howard Dale Kreeger, 78, of Wellington, died Saturday November 16, 2024, at Mercy Allen Hospital in Oberlin. Born on August 29, 1946, in Amherst, he was the son of the late Howard and Della (nee Witter) Kreeger. Dale spent most of his life in Amherst and was a graduate of Marion L. Steele High School.

Dale worked for many years at ARNCO and later for Pollen Implement before retiring. He was a long-time member of the Chestnut Ridge Baptist Church. Dale enjoyed fishing, hunting and outdoor cooking. He was an excellent mechanic and there was very little he could not fix when it came to cars. Dale was also a dedicated Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Most of all he cherished time with his wife, his friends, and his beloved cats.

Survivors include his loving wife of 34 years, Sandra (nee Richardson) Kreeger; 3 daughters; 2 stepdaughters; and a sister-in-law, Jeanne (Tom) Day.

A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, November 22, beginning at 2 p.m. at Norton-Eastman Funeral Home, 370 South Main Street, Wellington, 44090. Expressions of sympathy and fond memories may be shared online at www.norton-eastmanfuneralhome.com.
