Del's sister-in-law Kay Beal sent us an email on October 24, 2014 informing us that Del Badam passed away on January 2, 2014. We asked her for an obituary.
Del's family did not have an obituary because Del didn't want it. He worked for the courts and Ruth (his wife) had an open house later in January 2014 for his friends and Del's and our families. That is what Del Wanted and she met his wishes. The mortuary just had his name and Death date.
I wish I could help you more.
Thanks so much.
Kae
