    A note of Sympathy. Though words, however gentle, cannot take your loss away, Still May this note of sympathy help comfort you today. God's blessings! Dean & Marian Barjenbruch. I sure enjoyed visiting with Delbert when I would deliver his lunch. Giving me some history of Scribner with his newspaper clippings.

    I only had the pleasure of meeting Delbert a couple of times with my brother-in-law Larry Moeller. I enjoyed those visits very much. Feisty and quick witted is what I remember and I loved it. He will be missed but there are so many who have been waiting for him and they are all happy together. Love Shelley
