Del was my 4/c room mate at the USCGA, until he reverted to the class of 1958. Our deepest sympathies are extended to his wife and family. A good man, a great diver. May his memory be eternal.

Jim and I were deeply saddened to learn of Del's passing. As a fellow Niantic Lion we will miss him dearly. He brought laughs and joy to all of us. He will always be remembered for bidding for the last envelope in our Administrative raffle at our meetings and was very often the winner.
Del had been a Niantic Lion for over 50 years and it was our pleasure to know and work with
Del at all club events.
Our sincere sympathy to his wife Judith and family. Peace and God's...
