Brian Delma Obituary

DELMA Brian Stuart Delma, will live forever in our hearts and dreams until we are reunited in Heaven. He left the pain of this world in the arms of his wife and best friend of 24 years. No one ever loved harder than Brian loved his wife, Shelly Delma (Burgess); children, Laura Faye Delma, Tessa Leigh McClure and husband, Chase and first grandchild, Lillian (2 months); son, Rory Stuart Delma, and his youngest child, Chloe Jayne Delma (8 years). Brian never gave up hope of beating colon cancer and was beyond valiant in trying to stay with his family. He will be held in memory and love by his sisters, Linda Delma Gieseke, Marletta Delma, Joyan (John) Johnson, Dawn Delma; and brother and friend, Ronald (Angie) Delma. He was the most amazing and talented car salesman, supported and admired by all those who worked with him. Though too many relatives and friends to name; know that love and appreciation are bound to all. Jason Goss of AutoDirect, the dealership Brian worked for these last difficult years, thank you for friendship and support that defied any explanation except for that of love. He left us with a place that will remain forever empty, a void bearable only by the knowledge of the peace and joy that comes with heaven. We love you, we miss you, and we are with you always. The family will receive friends on Monday, November 29, 2010, 6-7 p.m. at The Vineyard of Columbus, 6000 Cooper Road, Chapel North Entrance, Westerville, OH 43081 with the Memorial Service at 7 p.m. Messages of condolence may be left at www.NewcomerColumbus.com.
