Sweet condolences to the family of Del. Our interaction was brief, but it was lovely. I pray for healing and love.
All the best,
Danesha
Del was my first hire at CRi. He didn't mind having a "boss" 10 years younger than him. He was rock steady, dependable and respected our mission and individuals he helped maintain a comfortable home for. He was generous with his knowledge and patient. While sometimes he appeared gruff he was a gentle, caring soul.
At his retirement luncheon I joked that we had been together longer than our current marriages as it took both of us a redo to find our person. I'm glad that he had Pam, although I/m sure 19 years feels to short. I am glad he did have someone to care for him and to care for. From his stories they had great adventures and family life together. My deepest condolences Pam and to his entire extended family.
I will always have fond thoughts of Del. A solid man with a life well led. How I especially wish the Lions could have come through for him this past season. Like in many aspects of his life he never gave up on his team even after an 0-16 season. RIP.
Pam and family: I am so sorry for your loss. I am also sorry that I am not able to be there with you. Germany is too far away to drive. You know my heart is there with you and I am sending my strength to help you.
I wanted to share a memory. When Pam met Del, she told me he was the sweetest guy she ever met. When I met him, I knew he was perfect for her. He had my heart from day one. I told him I came with the deal and he said he could live with that. He even let all of us go on their honeymoon with them! He is the best! I will miss him but I will see you again my friend! Watch over us! Love you all. Kerrie Jobe
