A tribute to a one of a kind man; Delbert E Danielson;I have heard of Del being referred to as "The Marlborl man" Many rember him as being a good and generous father, he loved all his children equally. A lot of people who rember and loved Del, hope and pray that now that he is gone, that his hard earned assetts are as equally distributed as his love was to his children .
From a lot of his older and fathful friends.
,
+++++.
