I first saw Della on a PBS program around 1973. I remember it because she was playing drums and I hadn't ever seen a woman playing drums before. Many years later when I started dating Mack Goldsbury I met her in person because she sang and Mack played saxophone and they did gigs together. She was an amazing person and I feel honored that I got to talk with her and get to know her beautiful spirit. I hope she found Mack and that they're doing gigs in heaven. Rest in peace beautiful woman and we see us on the other side.

I was planning on going to visit Aunt Della on Memorial weekend. I will miss her.
She was sweet, talkative, and friendly.
She was also a great cook and made delicious sugar cookies!
I loved to listen to her and Uncle Diane talk. They both had unique voices.
Special thanks to Louella for taking good care of both of them.

Della! You were such an inspiration to me! The world lost a treasure when you left us! I'm so thankful our lives crossed paths and I got to meet you! Rest in peace; I'll see you on the other side!
