Delphine,
You will truly be missed. Your vibrant smile was infectious and you shined wherever you went. Your positive presence had a lasting impact to always keep us laughing. God now has an Angel in Miss Diva Delphine!

You will be missed but never forgotten. Love you always and forever.❤❤

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

In loving memory of a wonderful friend DELPHINE. I will love her and she will be truly missed. ShoQoya when it get to hard for you and it will. I won't say don't be sad but think on things that you and Del did together, things that made her giggles or laugh. Like the time I fell out of DeReese's vehicle by the house after the cruise. I could hear her now laughing. She not here with us physically but she will always be in our hearts and memories forever. MFSIL!

Words can no express how Beautiful you were!!! Several of us relocated through work, but several of us became friends!!! You my friend, co worker, always working late, single mom's, helping each other in work and in life, those are timeless memories!!! You were not only beautiful, literally inside and out, you were warm, loving, funny, always a smile, always positive! Me and you single mom's only one child and talked about how much our kids meant to us!!! We are blessed with amazing kids!!!...

Our deepest condolences to her family and friends. Keeping you all in our thoughts.

I will carry your memories in my heart. Continue to sleep my dear.

To Delphine’s family and friends. She was a true gem. I’m sorry for your loss and will keep you in my prayers during this tough time.

Love Alone!
