I'm so sorry to hear of Dell's passing. She was always one of my favorite people in the world. As one of our "Moms" in the neighborhood, I grew up knowing her as a kind, loving person, with a wonderful sense of humor. I'll miss her sweet smile but have wonderful memories of her. My sympathy to the family.
