Dale Edward Harden, 60, of Cullman, Alabama, passed away on February 15, 2025. Mr. Harden was born to the late Jonathan Lamar and Marlene DeWolfe Harden on July 22, 1964, in Miami, Florida.

Dale was a hardworking man who sometimes had a stubborn streak. Even when he was standing his ground, Dale was always making those around him laugh. He and his dog Bryan “Circles” had a special bond and Dale enjoyed Circles company. Dale enjoyed fishing and Auburn football, but his true joy was found in spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren.
