Delphine was one of the warmest, kindest, and most generous people I've known. You couldn't ask for a better neighbor and friend. She was a wonderful cook, and we enjoyed many meals and good visits with Delphine and Roland through the years. She was always ready with a helping hand and enjoyed a good laugh. We will all miss her.
