Dear Howard and children, As we walk down the path of life, sometimes we meet people and bond with them. I want you to know this is exactly what happened when I met and worked with your wife and mother at the Hoffman Library. I worked with your mom thirty years ago when she was the children's librarian and I enjoyed her as a friend and co-worker. She carved a niche in my heart that will remain forever. Please know you have my sincere sympathy,prayers, and thoughts as you walk in the valley of darkness. Realizing your mom has seen the Great Light gives us comfort and joy because she deserves a heavenly reward for the way she led her life. I care so much about your loss as Delpha was one of my favorite library workers. She taught me so beautifully how to handle a roomful of little pre-schoolers. She loved her job and did it with grace,dignity, and humility. I bid you a fond farewell Delpha. Sincerely meant. Miriam
