A Tribute to Dale Lonis
Show Notes

It is with much sadness that we share the passing of past BRP guest and friend of the podcast, Dr. Dale Lonis. We share clips from old episodes with three of his past students, Dr. Darrin Oehlerking, Dr. Jacqueline Dawson and Dr. Jason Caslor, who share a little bit about their time with Dale and the impact he had on them.

We also share Dale’s hilarious bonus episode with you. Dale tells us about when he was the captain of the University of Illinois rugby team and was hit a little too hard. This event also helped Dale see the softer side of the legendary, Dr. Harry Begian, Director of Bands at the University of Illinois.

We encourage you to listen to Dale’s main episode again and think about how you can connect with people in rehearsals and in life for years to come.
