"He then called 911 and went over and held one of the guys in his arms as he died, and there were just bodies scattered everywhere," Dale said. Utah Highway Patrol speculated the van was traveling up to 20 miles over the posted speed limit of 75 mph when it rolled, and that no passengers were wearing seatbelts. Dale said he had a hard time believing his brother was speeding. "They're trying to say that my brother was going 95-100 [mph| and that's ridiculous because I know very well that Kyle Holden was right behind the van, and he said he was going 80," Dale said. "He said the reports are bogus." Dale also believes that several of the victims were wearing seat belts. "The van rolled four times," Dale said. "If you roll four times at the speed they were going, who's to o say a seat belt didn't fail or they just 3 worked their way out of a seat belt."

"So when you listen to all this stuff, you just have to be wise enough to sift through it." Dale said his brother's mechanical gift enabled him to be a skilled instructor. "He took that mechanical gift and he exercised it to the point that he could teach others and he was a masterful teacher," Date said. "He was very well regarded, well respected by those that he taught. He truly qualifies to me and a lot of others as a hero," After graduation in December, Dale plans to follow a job lead in Wyoming to become administrator of a skilled nursing facility.
