Dear Bett and family, We have many wonderful memories of our trips to the South. Our boys always looked forward to going to Uncle Del's and the great times there, then on to the gulf. It was always a high point of our year. Then Danny and Dean came along and really added to the summer fun with their cousins. Trips are great, but even better when you have loving Christian family to share them with. May the Lord be very close and comforting to all of you. Love, Karlos and Mary

Diana and I (and our family) extend our deepest sympathy to the family. Though the years and obligations of life have made it difficult to get together, my memories of Uncle Del and your family remain strong. Del was my inspiration to pursue the mechanical engineering field and I will always be grateful for that. From my earliest memories of our trips to Lake Charles and Groves I recall Del's laughter, sly grin and quick wit. In a family where the men can sit in a room for an hour and not say anything to each other, I remember Del breaking the silence with a joke or comment. I remember him pushing out his partial set of teeth to make us laugh. Bett, Danny and Dean (and families)- I pray that God will give extra comfort and strength during these difficult days and rejoice that Del is now able to pass fully into the Kingdom of Heaven. You are very dear to me and I ask that you forgive me for not being able to be with you today.
