Obituary
Passed on December 10, 2022
November 24, 1941 – December 10, 2022 It is with great sadness that his family announces the sudden passing of their Dad/Grandfather, Dale Yeo, on December 10, 2022 at his home in Stonewall, Manitoba. A lifelong and passionate fan of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers is now cheering on his team from Heaven. Mom will be amused, and certainly not surprised.
Gordon Dale Yeo was born in Winnipeg on November 24, 1941. He received his public school education at Mulvey and Gordon Bell Schools, where the influence of some excellent educators led him to the vocation of teaching. After high school, Dale pursued post-secondary studies in History, English and Education at United College and the University of Manitoba. It was while a student at United that he met and subsequently married Rosemarie Thiele from Dauphin, Manitoba in 1961. It was the beginning of a beautiful partnership, which lasted almost 60 years.
In 1962 the couple, along with baby son, packed up their few belongings and moved to Roblin, Manitoba where Dale’s 35-year teaching career would begin. “Mr. Yeo”, as he was known to hundreds of students over the years, became a master teacher, professional and committed to his craft. He and Rosemarie fell in love with their new community and for more than 50 years were an integral part of it. Even while juggling a busy work life as a teacher and vice-principal at Roblin Collegiate Institute/Goose Lake High School, and being a wonderful father to his five children, Dale volunteered thousands of hours over many years to several community endeavours such as the Roblin Credit Union, Community Foundation, Lions Club, Trans-Canada Trail, Meals on Wheels, Roblin Centennial Committee, and construction of a new community centre. He served as Deputy Mayor of Roblin and enjoyed reading to the residents of Crocus Court seniors home. He and Rosemarie were members of Sacred Heart Parish, with a deep and abiding faith which helped guide their lives.
In 2017 the two made the difficult decision to leave Roblin to be nearer to family and to have closer access to necessary medical services. They relocated to Stonewall, taking up residence at Lion’s Manor where they quickly made many new friends and became part of that community.
Dale was predeceased by his beloved Rosemarie in 2020, parents Frank (1969) and Lillian (2001), and infant brother Ross (1948). He is survived by sons David (Laurel), Douglas (Wei Li), Robert (Lindy), Allen, and daughter Donna (Curtis). He leaves behind eight cherished grandchildren: Kelly (Spencer), Jamie and Scott Yeo; Jacynthe Yeo; Joshua and Jennifer Yaschyshyn; and Elizabeth and William Yeo. Also left to mourn in London, England is Clayton (Arlette) Yeo, his brother for whom Dale had such great affection, pride and respect. The Thiele in-laws who were family to Dale for six decades, Tina Arbez, many nieces and nephews along with former colleagues and his many friends, acutely feel this terrible loss as well.
A funeral service will be held on December 17, 2 pm, at Christ the King Church (325 2nd St E, Stonewall). A brief reception will follow in the auditorium at Quarry Park Heritage Arts Centre (166 Main Street, Stonewall). Donations in Dale’s memory can be made to the Roblin and District Community Foundation (Box 1599, Roblin MB, R0L 1P0), Something Beautiful (307 Main Street, Stonewall MB, R0C 2Z0), or the Terry Fox Foundation (terryfox.org or 1-888-836-9786).
His positive outlook, undiminished zest for life, genuine interest in others, and sense of responsibility as a parent and citizen were rare qualities characteristic of Dale. How blessed we were.
We love and miss you so very much, Dad.

We offer our deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Dale Yeo 2022  and hope that their memory may be a source of comfort during this difficult time. Your thoughts and kind words are greatly appreciated.
