Dale Carlisle, 64

Dale Francis Carlisle, age 64, of Constantine, passed away on Wednesday, July 30, 2025 after a brief illness.  He was born on July 16, 1961 the son of Donald and Belva (Rosen) Carlisle.  Dale attended Three Rivers High School and lived in the St Joseph County area his entire lifetime.  On July 3, 1999 he married the love of his life, Connie Bingaman.  Connie sadly passed away in 2023.

Dale enjoyed the simple things in life; listening to Journey loudly on the radio, going fishing at the bridge, and watching war movies (especially Platoon).  He would often be seen outside, cooking and grilling for small get-togethers.  Some could say he was a “man stuck in his ways”, however he had a big heart for those closest to him.  He loved his animals, he adored his grandchildren, and loved his wife Connie unlike anyone else could.

Dale is survived by his 4 children; Tiffany (Tim) Carlisle, Breanna (Tyler) Carlisle, Tabitha (Jason) Jarratt, and Wade (Jody) Kreitzer; 9 grandchildren; Cierra Bender, Austin Bender, Nataleigh Jarratt, Nathaniel Jarratt Jr, Cassie Semore, Gracie Kreitzer, Hailey Hargett, Landon Kochel, Kambrie Kochel; 2 great-grandchildren; Lennon Lindsey and Kahleesi Moore; siblings; Carl (Chris) Carlisle, Sharon Chapman, Jessica (Mark) Majka, Michelle Scarberry, Juanita Phillips, and Kay Frohriep; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and extended families.  He was preceded in passing by his parents; Donald and Belva Carlisle; his sisters; Zelma Fischer, Judy Young, and Bonnie King; and his wonderful wife, Connie Carlisle.

In keeping with his wishes, cremation is being conducted.  A celebration of life will take place at a later date.  Condolences and memories may be expressed to his family at eickhofffuneralhome.com
