Much sympathy to the family. Della was a very special lady to me and I’m so happy that I got to know her and help her out. I’m so sad to hear she has passed. Between delivering to her and cutting her hair, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Della so well. I will miss her dearly.
Forever in our hearts.

Rest in beautiful peace.
My condolences to the whole family, she was a great lady who will me sorely missed. Someone once told me this and maybe it will help. “It’s okay to have bad days because it reminds you how much you love them, and the good days remind you they’re right there with you.”

Please accept my deepest sympathy to family and friends on the passing of Della. She was a good neighbour & friend to my late brother Chuck and his wife, Marlyn for many years. Della and I had many long distance calls over the past 6 years and I will dearly miss that. She was such a sweet, caring lady. Rest in peace Della and May God Bless all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Sincerely, Lynne Thorson (Maidment)
