He is survived by his wife, Catherine of 70 years; his 4 children, Debbie Caspari, Jim Dellinger III, Robin Dellinger, and Denise Stalnaker; his 6 grandchildren; and 5 great grandchildren.
He was a barber, a teacher and retired as a Principal from FCPS after 27 years. Jim was very active in his church, the Lions Club, and participated in numerous other volunteer activities. He loved his music and played a variety of musical instruments. Jim was a wonderful, caring, kind, gentle man who will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
He's in the sun,
the wind, the rain,
he's in the air you
breathe with every
breath you take.
He sings a song
of hope and cheer,
there's no more pain,
no more fear.
You'll see him in
the clouds above,
hear him whisper
words of love, you'll
be together before
long, until then
listen for his song.
