Dale Figtree

Our Family and Community lost a very precious member. Dale Figtree, 77 of Santa Barbara, passed away peacefully in her home on July 27th. Born on May 14th,1948 in Philadelphia.

She is survived and cherished by two loving sisters, Ann Cherner and Robin Jones as well as her multitude of cousins, nieces and nephews.

An independent traveler in her 20’s she lived in Greece, Mallorca, London, New York and Florida. While living in New York City, Dale was diagnosed with an inoperable cancerous growth in her chest cavity at 27 years old. Her treatment included intensive radiotherapy that partially shrunk the tumor but left her with a damaged vocal cord and one lung with massive scar tissue.

At this point she was introduced to an extraordinary Doctor known for his work with patients who experienced healing mostly through radical food protocols along with ongoing traditional treatments.

Dale’s extraordinary healing journey is in her book, ‘Health After Cancer’. When she relocated to Laguna Beach a few years later, her complete focus was clear. Dale completed her PH’D in nutrition and her practice was launched to share what she personally experienced.

In the early 90’s when Dale joined her sister in Santa Barbara, she found her ‘Forever Home, growing Health Practice and Spirit Family’.

Dale Figtree was a much-needed guide for the health and healing of our community and beyond. Her devoted nutritional practice made a difference to all who reached out. She will always be loved and cherished by the countless lives she touched.
