The mere mention of the name Dale Earnhardt provokes emotions of respect, idolization and a stilling sense of awe in race fans and people around the world.

He may have been known as The Intimidator, but his heart and giving ways were bigger than any track he raced. Many of those giving and charitable ways often went without fanfare or public accolades. As busy as he was, he never forgot his humble beginnings and knew the value of taking time to remember those in need.

Dale Earnhardt was a respected race car driver and a winning team owner. He was loved as a husband, father, grandfather, boss and most importantly - as a person. When the black #3 Chevrolet took to the track, fans stood, cheered and watched his every move. He is still admired, still respected and will never be forgotten.
