She grew up in Cando and Devils Lake, ND. Del and Hod owned and operated Grafton Aero Service. Del worked at Reyleck’s Dept. Store as a clerk and buyer. Del took all of her roles in life very seriously; daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, church member, employee, and volunteer. Del could find a job for anyone! She always fought for the underdog.
