Dale Keith Wilkins, 70, of Onalaska, passed away on Thursday, March 21, 2019, at his home. 

Dale was born in Prairie du Chien, on June 12, 1948, to Kenneth and Grace (Moeller) Wilkins. He was joined in marriage to Dianne Stoehr on Nov. 7, 1970, in Seneca. He served his country in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. Dale spent many of his earlier years as a diesel mechanic both in the Seneca and in the La Crosse area, and then later he worked as an over-the-road truck driver for Ashley furniture out of Arcadia, retiring a few years ago. Dale was an avid hunter, his favorite being bow-hunting. His adventures included elk hunting in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and a Moose hunt with his son in Alberta, Canada. He was known for his fine wood-working, creating many pieces of furniture for family members. He was a lifetime member of the Chaseburg Rod & Gun Club. 

Dale is survived by his wife, Dianne; his children, Christine (Chuck Chvala) Wilkins of Madison, and Craig (Kristin Plaski) Wilkins of Stevens Point; his grandchildren, Colton and Adeline Chvala and Kayla Plaski; his father; Kenneth; and his siblings, Dixie (Don) McCullick and Dwight (Dawn) Wilkins of Viroqua, and Doyle (Bengie) Wilkins of La Crosse. He was preceded in death by his mother, Grace, and his infant brother.
