This lady is SINCERELY missed. We love and miss you sweet lady. Don't know if those who have passed can feel the Hugs and kisses we send, but if anyone can, this lady will find a way. Yvonne and Randy Ammerman

She was a beautiful bride and a wonderful mother to her sons. Vicky Sterling

I really miss you girl. I want to call and tell you how I’ve gotten into cooking Indian food, catch you up on the grands, and tell you about our trip to Alaska. I always considered you my best friend, and I think you may have been a lot of people’s best friend. 😘

We miss you sweet lady. We miss your smile, big heart and caring ways. ❤️  You remain in our hearts and memories.  Yvonne and Randy Ammerman 

We remember her and her beauty!
In Christ Alone,
Vicky Sterling 

Delinda was a true ray of sunshine. She always had a kind word and made every person feel seen, included, and important. Shell and the world have lost a great soul with her passing. Her infectious joy will be missed by so many. 

DELINDA WILL BE REMEMBERED FOREVER. THE POSITIVE IMPACT SHE CREATED TO SO MANY PEOPLE DURING HER PROFESSIONAL CAREER AS A MENTOR, PHILOSOPHER AND GUIDER WILL BE MEMORABLE. SHE BROUGHT SMILES TO SO MANY PEOPLE's LIFE, THANKS FOR BEING WITH US ALL THE TIME. YOUR SOUL WILL REST IN PEACE. THANK YOU!
                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                     Tarun Dhal   

Mike, Andrew, Stephen and family,
My deepest condolences with Delinda. I've learned to know Delinda as senior team member in a new role that started January 2020, while I had a few accessional contacts with her during project 'Babylon' yours earlier. Delinda had an enormous strong passion and was always so loyal in her work. Her energy seemed to be endless. She put the bar high for herself and for her colleagues and had a tremendous finance knowledge. The accounting references made during the service resonated with how I have known Delinda. Always willing to make herself available to help if I had any questions. She enjoyed to share her pride she had for her family. She told us how much she missed you and the dogs during her stay in Netherlands. She was incredibly strong, may she Rest In Peace. I wish you all the strenght with Delinda's terrible loss!

I met Delinda when we were both members of a team that was driving the replacement of a major document management system in use across Shell world-wide: she as the finance lead, me as the value delivery lead. It was easy to find each other in dedicated drive for delivery, desire to immediately fix problems, and the humor and support for each other that was necessary to stay standing in what was a whirlwind of a programme under fire to deliver. 

It was some 5 years later that I had the chance to bring Delinda on board in a new team that was to help operationalize a new delivery organization from scratch. I never thought about it twice and never regretted it for a second. 

The partnership with Delinda grew into and easy and comfortable friendship in the time that she spent here in the Netherlands, talking about everything from our kids, to our personal perspectives about women and careers :), how to deal with both issues at play in work and home life, whether Tanqueray 10 beats Bombay Sapphire, and the fun of having corgis in your life. When she was back in the US and the lockdown drove us to work virtually, she adjusted her working day to create decent overlap with India and NL (typically Delinda) and we developed a 'routine' of quick connections at the end of the Dutch working day to decompress and dissect what was happening on our playing fields in the office and at home. 

The way we were able to work together to make things happen under difficult circumstances was truly the best possible: as trusted colleagues and friends, open and honest dialogue, helping each other to make whatever we got our hands on together better as a result.  She made a big difference in the team, as an uplifting and connecting force of positive energy.  I don't think there is anyone that knew  her that didn't feel that way. 

She left a big hole that will be impossible to fill.  I loved her, and will miss her terribly. 

I'm so sorry to hear this news.  I have such warm memories of wonderful Delinda from my time with her in Century Singers at Texas A&M.  She was always upbeat, so darn smart, beautiful in every way, and a wonderful hostess.  She was the kind of person who makes a big impression and memories of her have always brought with them a happy feeling to me over the years.  I'll have all of her heartbroken loved ones and friends in my prayers,

To Mike, Andrew, Stephen
My deepest prayers and thoughts go to you right now. It is sad to lose Delinda . She fought the good fight but God has a need for her now. The Blomquist family choir in heaven has another member singing for our Lord . 
The service was very touching and loved Jesus Loves Me closing. I think every Cousin was taught that song and can sing it by heart. 
I can't forget the times in the late 60's and early 70's our families gathered together most Sundays in San Antonio or New Braunfels. God be with you and my door is always open .
With Love
Cousin Gene Johnson

Delinda and I were good friends in high school and it was great to catch up with her at class reunions.  After she and Terri Albers Griffin McDonald planned our 40th reunion in October of 2019, Delinda and I  got together at Einsteins in Cleak Lake for coffee and bagels and a good, long one-on-one chat.  We shared how we had both taken time out of our career pursuit to spend more time with our sons and that those memories were especially precious.  Delinda was excited about her new opportunity to spend more time in the Netherlands, so we weren't sure when we would be able to chat again.  The next thing I heard was about Delinda, Mike and one of their sons all having COVID.  I joined the facebook group and followed Mike's daily updates and prayed for Delinda's recovery and her family to have the strength to support her through all the struggles.  She looked so joyful giving the thumbs up after the successful surgery to remove the ECMO.  Today's memorial service  uplifted me and I am sure many others as we all got a chance to say a final fare thee well to a wonderfully, funny, compassionate woman.  She is missed.


I had the privilege to work with Delinda in Shell and also got the chance to help her in the Shell Women in Finance events.   Delinda was such a warm-hearted person.  Her beautiful smile, her care for others and her passion for life will be greatly missed!!! It is hard to imagine this day and it is even harder to imagine the pain that Mike, Stephen and Andrew are going through.  But we trust in God’s plan and in His sovereign, He wants our very dear Delinda to finally have rest and peace in His house.   So as we say goodbye to Delinda, I know that she is now in a better place.   Our loss is heaven’s gain today!

Love you and will miss you Delinda!   



I first met Delinda when we worked at Star Enterprise at Northborough.    She always met me with a welcoming smile and had a way to quickly figure out how she could help  with great advice.   Several years later I joined SWIFT (Shell Women In Finance Together) where Delinda was the last original team member of this initiative to help Women advance through laughter, learning and connection.   She was a pioneer  who passionately drove for the things she believed in and paid attention to every detail because everything mattered.  I'm sure her family will remember the many flower arrangements she would make ahead of an event!   
I will miss seeing her in the corridors, but her legacy will be forever remembered.   Thank you for making a difference in my life.
My prayers and condolences to family and friends.
Kathy Rauch

It was an honor to call Delinda my cousin and I loved her dearly.  She was soft spoken but had a voice like an angel that would put a smile on those hearing her sing.  Her memory will forever live in our hearts and mind. Love you Cuz!

Delinda had a beautiful voice. I will always remember her singing at Allyson’s wedding back in the 80’s. I admired Delinda and felt a connection with her being a younger sister of two girls myself. Wish I could’ve gotten to know the adult Delinda better. I so appreciate the family zoom call we had not that long ago that she coordinated. I got to see her smiling face! I love you, Delinda! I will see you again!

Mike
There are no words to say that can solve your grief.  Just know that Delinda is in a better place and that she will share the rest of life with you in unique ways, that you don't expect.
Life will be hard for sometime because she was the love of your life. Family, friends, and time does help you get through.  I am  there whenever you want to reach out to talk - about the two great men you both raised or any other items I might be helpful with.
One piece of advice - let others help you.  This is another example of it takes a community to live a full life.
The Fitch family's thoughts and prayers for you, Delinda and your men.


Another bright star was added to our night sky.  Delinda was warm, generous, caring, and always with a smile. Delinda, you always seemed to do it all and do it well.  A women with endless energy who would go out of her way to help others. I will never forget you and was blessed to have known and worked with you.

My prayers continue for the family.


Mike, Stephen, Andrew, I’m so sorry.  Delinda adored the three of you, and was so proud of you.  Every time we talked, you came up, I feel like I know you.

Delinda was my treasured friend.  She was so clever, warm, funny, and kind.  She never missed an opportunity to help someone, and she had ethics and integrity, someone who truly tried to live her life in the best possible way.  Her faith was such a huge part of who she was, and she lived her life accordingly.

Her optimism and positive approach were inspiring.  When things went wrong, she’d allow herself a few minutes to wallow/yell/whatever, and then she’d focus on fixing it and moving forward.

I’ll miss Delinda’s laugh, and her hugs.  I’ll miss her counsel, she was my sounding board so many times, both personal and professional.  I’ll miss nattering with her, I’ll miss dissolving into giggles over something ridiculous which was not that funny, but in the moment it really was.

She was very special. The world is smaller.


Delinda brightened rooms with her smile and enriched lives with her compassion and generosity. I pray that her family and friends find comfort in her memories. 

I'm pretty sure Delinda spent 99% of her life working to make other people's lives better.  I have a feeling she even did it in the hospital. Her warmth, kindness, strength and faith were evident every time I was with her or spoke to her.  When I read all the comments, it just shows how many lives she touched.  She definitely had a profound impact on so many and was an example of how we should all live .   You will be missed! Find your peace amongst the angels! 

Dear Mike,
Know that you, Delinda, your sons and your extended family have been and remain in our thoughts and prayers.  If there is anything that we can do for you, now or in the future, all you need to do is ask.

Sincerely,

Lou & Katie

Part 2

Often in times of grief, I remind myself that God has a plan — we don’t always understand it, and we often don’t agree with it—but there is a plan. In one of our FaceTime calls when things seemed to be moving in the right direction, I remember Delinda saying, “God must have something special he wants me to do. I just have to figure out what it is!” After reflecting, I realized that Delinda had been doing God’s work all her life! I think God was saying, “Delinda, you have served me well.. Now is the time to rest!”

“My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever” —Psalms 73:26

I’ve thought non-stop about Delinda, but I’ve also thought about Mike, Stephen, Andrew and Virginia. First, I want you to know how proud she was of ALL of you... you were her life! I loved sharing stories about family. I’m amazed at the strength and faith you all showed through this journey. I have a lot to learn from not only Delinda, but from each of you as well. Mike, I especially loved how you ended every update with a specific prayer.

Delinda obviously had an impact on many during her time on earth, and her legacy will live on. During her battle, when we all felt helpless, Christy (the third musketeer a.k.a. “Sistas”) would always say, “I keep thinking... what would Delinda do?” Since Delinda’s passing, several friends have reached out. One friend bought groceries for someone behind her, in honor of Delinda. She told another friend, and she did the same. Multiple people have said they want to be more like Delinda or the world could use more Delindas. My daughter actually said, “I want to be Delinda!”

Her strength, kindness, and influence on others lives will live on forever!

I will truly miss my Delinda... she was a”sista” to me! Rest In Peace, my dear friend!

Part1

I’ve had a million thoughts in my head this week, and I can never put into words how special Delinda will always be to me. I’ve known Delinda for almost 20 years, but I really got to know and love her the last 10+ years. I consider Delinda one of my very best friends.

Everyone who knows Delinda knows that she is a planner— no detail too small (she could even drive you crazy sometimes with her details 😊). As I reflect on my relationship with Delinda, and as I read the many tributes around her kindness, it amazes me that she was willing to drop any plans she had to help someone else at a moments notice.

I have several examples where Delinda made me a priority, but I’ll only share a couple. 

When my Mom passed away a couple years ago, it was right before Christmas. Delinda, as a working Mom, didn’t hesitate to hop on a plane...fly to New Orleans... rent a car... drive to MS for the service and spend the day with me. I know she had a million things to do, but that didn’t stop her!

Last year, I was in the hospital over my birthday. Delinda arranged a drive-by birthday parade 3 days after I was home. That may seem simple, but she / Mike drove from Clear Lake to my home in the Woodlands. It literally took them 3 hours for a 5 minute parade... again, she didn’t hesitate!

One person wrote that you remember someone by the way they make you feel. She always made me feel as if I were special. What I now realize more than ever, is that Delinda is extraordinarily special. I don’t know anyone who instinctively defaults to helping others (whether you are a long-time friend or you just met) like Delinda did!

So... there is a limit to letters... I have so much to say... I’ll just have to enter Part 2 (I think Delinda would do that😉)

Dear Mike and family,
Sending you my deepest sympathy on the loss of your wife, mom, sister, aunty and friend.
Delinda was an amazing, awe inspiring lady! She brought energy and fun to team meetings even at 4am in the morning with her dedication. She was the ultimate professional, brilliant at her job, a good coach who also challenge you to do even better. I feel so lucky I got to work with Delinda this past year. I will miss her. 
I can't imagine how you must be feeling. I hope your memories bring you comfort along with the outpouring of love and admiration.  This poem spoke to me as we often think of Delinda, spoke her name and this photo captures a fun shared memory at our team building cooking night last February.
With sympathy,
Karen
(Colleague based in the UK)
💙
We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we’ll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.
💙

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only a few will leave footprints on your heart.” — Eleanor Roosevelt.... 

Delinda was one of them. I had the privilege to work with Delinda in Shell. She was based in Houston and I in Chennai, India. Though physically we were miles apart, our work brought us together. I loved Delinda for her down to earth  attitude. She was so balanced when she gave any advice. Not sure when our professional relationship turned into friendship.  She really cared for people. Full of energy and always ready to help the team, share her knowledge and help make connections to resolve issues.

Even though we moved to other roles in Shell where we didn't have to work together, Delinda stayed in touch. She made it a point to keep me informed every time she made a visit to India and would always bring a beautiful gift along.

I'm honoured and blessed to have known such a beautiful person and over the past few months as she fought with the virus, she brought many of us closer to God.  

Saddened by the shocking news of her death. May God give her eternal rest and may her soul rest in peace.

Mike, Stephen & Andrew, our condolences. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Today and always, may loving memories bring you peace, comfort, and strength.

I was blessed to work with Delinda at Shell for several years and co-lead with her the Shell Women in Finance events. She loved making the workplace better for everyone around her! She always spoke fondly of Mike and the boys and was a role model to so many of work/life balance. I am so grateful that God put Delinda in my life. Her memories will live on forever! Praying for Mike and the boys! 

A bright smile, a kind word, the gift of friendship.  I had the privilege to know and work with Delinda through Shell. She touched so many lives in Houston, in The Netherlands, in India and very likely many other places. She was a tremendous witness in her life, through her struggle with this awful disease and now in her passing.  I am thankful to have had the opportunity to know and love her, thankful that she was part of my church family at Trinity Downtown. and thankful to call her friend.  I will miss you sweet lady but your smile and your special gift of friendship will be with me for the rest of my days and I look forward to seeing you again.  Rest in the arms of Jesus my friend.  My prayers for peace are with Mike, Stephen, Andrew and Virginia.  

Delinda was always there to make sure I was included and important. When my window was broken at my home mid day, she stopped everything to drive me home and make sure it was a safe home to return home to. She also made sure my 50 year birthday was a week of small celebrations and made me feel truly loved in the workplace, which is a rare and beautiful talent. She was always a ray of sunshine every single day I saw her, and I am truly blessed I got to know her.

I met Delinda through an ad Delinda posted in the Green Sheet for childcare. I answered the ad and Delinda chose me to take care of Stephen, who was 4 and Andrew who was almost 2 at the time. I know this was a God thing. Delinda was a blessing in my life and I'm grateful to have known her. I'm grateful for her friendship, for her guidance and for her love. She had the most beautiful, kind, generous heart.  When I bought my car she was with me to help me and to make sure everything went o.k. When I had surgery she went to the hospital to be with Floyd and when I turned 60 she brought  balloons and cake to the pre-k where I worked. These are three of many  memories that I have of Delinda that spoke to her loving, thoughtful spirit. She was like a sweet sister to me and I'll miss her. I count myself among the lucky to have known her and call her friend. 
Mike, Stephen, Andrew and Virginia we're so sorry for your loss. Our hearts are filled with sadness for each of you. 
Jan and Floyd 


A contagious smile, a joyous laugh, always a friend! First to celebrate joy, first to lend a helping hand. Always a friend. Thank you Delinda for being there to help my wife during her time of need. Always a friend. Thank you Delinda for knowing the right thing to do and say when times were tough. Always a friend. Thank you Delinda for being a friend to my wife - always a friend. We love you and miss you sweet lady, sweet friend.

Yvonne and Randy Ammerman

I was shocked to learn of the loss of Delinda as a result of this terrible disease.  I haven’t been in touch with her since my retirement but was so fond of her.  She was truly a light in every room she entered.  She was smart, energetic, and just a delight in every way.  I will be in prayer for the family and hope that God blesses you with the strength and peace you need in the days ahead.  

I had the great pleasure of working with Delinda at Shell. She was a bright light every day. Delinda put so much effort into everything she did, especially the Shell staff events. 

We are so sorry to hear of her passing and the family is in our prayers.

I am from Michigan.  I first met Delinda waiting in line for coffee at church in Houston.  I was with my sister, who was having cancer treatment.  Right away, Delinda invited us to stay at her home each time we were in the area. Who does that?!  I often joke that I hope to grow up to be just like her, though we were close to the same age!  Since then, the Sterling’s have visited us in Michigan, Delinda introduced me to San Antonio’s River Walk, and we became Chocolate Spa Divas in Hershey, PA.  She invited me to visit her in the Netherlands this past year.  Her kindness, generosity and sense of adventure were unparalleled.  At my sister’s funeral, in Wisconsin, Delinda quietly pressed a beautiful, silver, James Avery pendant in my hand:  a butterfly with a cross in the center…it is a symbol of The Resurrection, of new life.  She reminded me that we will all be together again.

As we all know, there's all kinds of people in this world. But every so often, we get to see a certain kind of personality that has that amazing ability to light up a room with joy, warmth and endless laughter. That was Delinda! I never had a chance to work with her much, except with the occasional chat or maybe at an offsite event. But with the case of Delinda, that's all the time a person needs to immediately see her for the gem of a person she was. I don't think I've seen her anything but jovial. At the same time she was able to focus all her energies when it came to work or anything else that she did.

She will be missed! I cannot imagine how much more intense that feeling will be for her family. Keeping them in our prayers.

God bless!
Aby Mattathu

I first met Delinda in Houston 12 years ago and will never forget her positive attitude, smiling face & dry humour. I recently had the chance to work closely with Delinda and her manager Gina on a project and my daily meetings with them both were full of laughter and positive energy despite some very challenging work; we all shared a joint love of Tanqueray 10 gin, I will be raising a glass of this to Delinda and her family on Saturday 30th. May you rest in eternal peace, I leave you with a short poem.

God looked around his garden
And found an empty place,
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.

Delinda,  Your warm personality and professionalism was well known to all. I see you as bundle of knowledge, we will definitely miss you.  It was kind of a shocking news to hear... 

You will be really missed. Great Soul, Rest in Peace.

My deepest condolences to Delinda's family and  friends.

It is with great sadness that I have learned of Delinda’s passing, I am at a loss for words.  Delinda has made a notable impact when she joined IT Engineering during her STIA in the Netherlands. Delinda was a great professional and she was a pleasure to work with, consequently I will dearly miss her. My heart goes out to Delinda’s family in this difficult time. 

Though I had limited interaction with her, I fondly remember the SPC dinner we had in The Hague in Feb 2019. She was the Masterchef there. We shared  our experiences of both being away from home and even though she was much senior to me, what really impressed me was her friendliness and candid nature. Few weeks later, I recall her telling me she would be leaving NL before the lockdown kicks in and that was the last time I spoke to her/met her.  I will always remember her for her joyous nature. God Bless the family and God Bless her kind soul.

Like so many have already shared, Delinda was a joy to work with and be around.  My favorite ‘work’ with Delinda was getting to taste test menu options for events.  We shared a love of good food and her event skills were second to none!  RIP, we love you, and you will be missed. 

I am deeply saddened by the loss of my dear colleague Delinda. She was joy to talk to, full of life and kindest person I ever knew.  My deepest condolences to her family and friends. May her soul rest in peace. 

Sri Kodali 

Delinda was a joy to work with and always greeted you with a smile.  I will miss the conversations we had when we ran into each other at the office.  Her positive attitude and willingness to help made her special.  She will be missed.

Delinda was a such a ray of sunshine - always joyful and a pleasure to work with at Shell.  May she Rest In Peace and may her loved ones find comfort in the wonderful memories and fabulous legacy she leaves behind.  Delinda will be missed.  

Delinda was such a positive person and her smile brought joy to so many people. She embraced all cultures and enjoyed all the festivals. I remember celebrating Diwali ( Indian festival ) with Delinda at Shell Houston office.

Dear Mike,
Remembering lovely Delinda when you had the first date at Space Center Houston.  That seems like yesterday.   I have followed both of your careers and raising your sons throughout the years.  My heart is so sad for the three of you.  The blessing is that all of you will be united in Heaven one day.

Love and Blessings,
Lynn Hagerman

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  Please know that the NASA family is here for you.

Bara

This news came as a bolt from the blue. I have worked with Delinda for a few years and my kids know her as the NASA lady. I remember her jokes and the spirit and warmth that she brought to work everyday.

Michael, our heart goes out to you. If it is proving difficult for me to write this, and I knew Delinda for a few years, I wonder how difficult this must be for you.

From all of us in the family, our deepest condolences.

Dear Michael, Stephen and Andrew, 
Our deepest sympathies on Delinda's passing. She was an amazing person who left us way to soon.  I was fortunate to have worked with Delinda at Shell several years before I retired and will always remember her as someone who was very smart, genuine, positive and so much fun to be around.  She made work "fun".   She loved her family as she spoke of all of you frequently and she loved God.  I feel blessed to have known her. 
God bless, 
Glyn and Brenda Crocker

I am so sad to hear this news.  I had the pleasure to know and work with Delinda for the past 15 years.   She was a wonderful, kind, smart, caring person with a million dollar smile.  She was always a joy to be around and work with.   I will miss you Delinda, RIP.  Praying for the family during this difficult time. 

I am saddened to hear of Delinda's passing. My deepest condolences to the Sterling family and all relatives. Delinda was a person that was filled with energy, an amazing colleague and a good friend. I remember our last meal together in the Netherlands at a team member's home, where there was more laughter than talking. That was par for the course - laughter. 

At some point when her friends are able to get together in person, I know we will have a toast to her at Lupe Tortilla - her favorite place to meet - and think about the wonderful memories and impact she had on both our personal and professional lives. There is now some peace knowing she is not suffering anymore.

I will miss you greatly Delinda.

Kayoor Gajarawala

Extremely saddened to hear about Delinda. I will always remember her for the  enthusiasm, passion and positivity she exuded. My deepest condolences and prayers for the bereaved family during this difficult hour. Rest in Peace.

I am really sad to hear this news. My deepest condolence go to Delinda’s family and may God give them the strength to bear the loss. Never easy to accept this reality.

May the soul of Delinda rest in peace!

We miss you, next door neighbor.

You were a great person to organize neighborhood get togethers and family time.

Thanks for your great personality and laugh 



Deep condolences to the family and may God give them the strength to bear the loss. Never easy to accept this reality. May she be at peace as she moves on in the journey . 
Delinda  was known to me for a very short while, her openness and willingness to share left a mark,  I had a few connects but many personal stories shared  about NASA which intrigued me.   

May you be at peace Delinda !

I only got to know Delinda at the start of 2020 with the formulation of the new team in Shell IT Engineering.  Therefore my time knowing her was short but in that time she made a strong and happy impression. We'll really miss her in the team.

Huge condolences to the family for your loss.
Regards
Stuart

My condolences to Delinda's family.  She made me feel so welcome and helped me so much in person and virtually when I started my new role in Shell.  She was larger than life in many ways, always with a great sense of humour and willing to take on any challenge for the team.  And no challenge was too small or too great, she had time for everyone!  Her loss will be felt by all those she worked with.  

Hi Delinda,  the thing that comes to my mind when i think about u is the energy that u shared,  the passion with which you did your job and your sense of humour.  Thank you for taking care of me like a mother hen when i was in Houston. May you have peace and loads of good memories in your new home away from us. Loads of love, Ranjani Gupta

What a person remembers is how someone made them feel.  

Delinda always gave me warm feelings.  She was someone who encouraged me and gave me wings as a photographer and artist before I really knew my worth.  

She smiled easily and was kind to everyone. Most of all, I could tell how passionately she loved her family.  It is very sad that she passed on so early, but the life she lived is one that no one could ever be ashamed of.  She lived it to the fullest and gained the love and affection of so many.  Even though I only knew her for a few short years, she left an imprint in my heart.

May she rest in peace in the arms of her Father in heaven whom she loves, and I thank God for giving me the opportunity to have crossed paths with such a woman.

I am so sorry for your loss. I went to high school with Delinda but didn't know her. I have been praying for her and your family all along. I am so glad that you are confident in the hope of reuniting with her some day. What a blessed assurance!

Mike and family,

Sending you our deepest condolences during this time. I met Mrs. Delinda at Mike's birthday celebration at Whiskey Cake, where we had great conversation about family. It was a pleasure to met both her and your sons. I am deeply saddened for your loss.

Delinda flew to Germany(!) to help me after the birth of my 4th child, since my husband was in the military and not around much. She was the model of a true friend and a wonderful human who accepted me as I am. I really miss her.
