Dale Arthur Huston of Beaumont, Texas, passed away on April 22, 2024 at Baptist Hospital at the age of 87.

Born and raised in Akron, Ohio, on January 26, 1937, he was the son of Ralph Huston and Carrie Reifsnyder Huston. He attended Cuyahoga Falls High School, where he was a standout athlete excelling on the football field. His commitment to excellence earned Dale a full athletic scholarship to Bowling Green State University.

It was at Bowling Green State where he obtained his Bachelor of Science degree in Education and Physical Education with a minor in Biology, setting the stage for his impactful career ahead. Dale's legacy lies in his role as a beloved teacher and championship wrestling coach.

He was known for his dedication to his students both in the classroom and beyond the school grounds throughout the entire Coventry School District. As a coach - be it wrestling or football, he led by example with such passion and courage that even today, he is considered a legend to all who knew him.

He was an avid fan of Ohio State University sports, embodying true Buckeye spirit throughout his life. Dale Huston was so much more than a teacher and a coach. He was quick witted and devilishly handsome. He was a loyal friend. He was simply well liked by all who knew him.

During the course of his life, he held many jobs which he always performed with a work ethic second to none. He took none more seriously than that of husband and father. Among Dale's greatest joys was the love he shared with his lifelong sweetheart, Judy.

Their bond was strengthened through the years as they embarked on the journey of marriage and parenthood together. Family meant everything to Dale - it was the cornerstone of his happiness. His boys held a special place in his heart, and he took immense pride in watching them grow into fine young men.

Dale's love for his family knew no bounds; it was evident in every moment he shared with them. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Ralph and Carrie Huston; his sisters, Jane Huston Porter and Doris Huston; and his brother, Rick Huston.

He is survived by his adoring wife of 63 years, Judith “Judy” Huston; his sons, Scott Huston and wife, Kelly Blust Huston, and Matthew Huston and wife, Vineen Giordano; his grandchildren, Taylor VanderWerff, and Brett Huston; along with a host of loving family members, friends, former students and athletes.
