Del was a very proud 20-year Army veteran who served in the Operation Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom tours. Del's heart was filled with love for his mom, little sister Debbie, children, and grandchildren. His giant smile touched so many people wherever he was. Past time activities were fishing, hunting, 4-wheeling, Nascar, travelling anywhere with Roni, and enjoying a beer with the people he cared about most.

A small service will start at 11:00am, followed by an afternoon of remembering all the different chapters of Del's journey in life.
