Deleen and Tim. We have such special memories of your Mom and Dad and the times our families spent together in Horicon. I can still picture your house and land. Of course, it is also where we retrieved our beloved Mootza kitty many moons ago. Your Dad always seemed to be smiling and had that twinkle in his eye. Peace and love to you.

It was with a heavy heart that I learned of Dels' passing. Our world will
surely be a coarser, lonelier place without him. Del was that old- fashioned, breed of man that is so rare today,....a true gentleman. I am
a richer person today because I knew him, I'm sure we all are. May I
extend my condolences to his family, I know they will miss him terribly
I pray the the Lord grant you peace, strength and understanding.
