Dale Barlow, for many years the official timer at the Indianapolis State Fair and a longtime harness racing fan, died Thursday, May 22, 2008 at his home in Shelbyville, Ind., from natural causes. He was 93 years old.
Barlow is the father of retired trainer-driver Ken Barlow. Dale rarely missed a race in which his son drove. In his later years, he kept track of the drivers and their standings and at any time could tell you who the leader was. Last year, at the age of 92, he could be seen sitting in the top row of the bleachers watching the harness racing at the Shelby County Fair.
In addition to his son, Dale is survived by his wife, Inez; four granddaughters, nine great grandchildren and five great, great grandchildren.
Funeral services were held May 26 at Bengal Christian Church.
