Dale E. Yoder

Dale E. Yoder was born in Ohio and was raised on a central Ohio farm. From his austere, humble beginnings, he became an apprentice printer. He used his skills to fund his college expenses and gradutated with a degree in journalism. He went on to earn a masters degree in education and had a thirty year career in public education. His interest in senior adults and their needs resulted from his work as an elder in two local congregations. The gist of his book is to encourage older Christians to remain engaged and active after retirement. His contention is that seniors can anticipate their sweetest years lie ahead.
