Dale was born December 7, 1954, to Louis and Carolyn (Coffin) Miksch at St Mary's Hospital in Columbus, NE. Growing up on the farm taught him the value of hard work and a love of farming and the great outdoors. He graduated from Scotus Central Catholic High School in 1973. He then graduated with honors from Southeast Community College in Milford in 1988 with an AAS degree in surveying and computer-aided drafting.

Upon his retirement in 2021, he moved to Lincoln to be closer to his son and his friends in his bicycle club.
