Develle was one of the most wonderful people that I have ever known. She was one who shared her time and her goodness with anyone that needed her. I worked with her at The USAF Academy and we became friends from the time we first met. God certainly was in her heart. I will always miss her sweet smile and kindness. My love goes out to all that knew and loved her.

Mommy,
I can't believe it will be 12 years that we have been without you. I will never forget the phone call from my brother Tony "Sis she's gone". My heart still aches and I tear up at times when the thoughts of you come up or the holidays come around. Mothers Day is really hard . God was in control and he knew that you will feel so much better up in Heaven with him with no more pain & suffering. Continue to Rest In Peace Momma and watch over us as you have been all these years our beautiful Angel. You are truly missed. Still seems unreal. I Love you always. Until I see you again...

Life without Develle is less. Her love just lit up the world. When she spoke of her family, you felt honored to hear about them because of her love and devotion. She was one of God's earth angels while she was among us. Now for 10 years she has been one of His treasured heavenly angels. God wrap you in His arms and tell you that every one of us send our love to you Develle God loves you...

Develle will always be in my heart. She was the most loving mother and spoke of her family with a glow on her face and thanks to God in her heart. I worked with her and she was one of the most decent, compassionate souls. We may not have been blood kin, but we were family. God has her in His loving arms and I pray that He will give comfort and peace to her family. Life here is less without her.

Momma, Im still in shock that your not here with me today, I could always depend on your encouragement and letting me know that everything will be ok, I miss you and sometimes its so hard for me to understand why God wanted you so early, but i guess i cant be selfish and have to understand that you were an angel already, you were my angel, and the most loving mother of all times..im learning that everything happens for a reason and i guess the reason God wanted you was because God wanted you to do your same loving and always caring job with him, to watch over me, and schmara and everybody that loved you in this family R.I.P momma, i love you foreva and will never forget you, i will see you again.

My prayers go out to my family. I am a relative through my dad Willie King, Jr but unfortunately never had the pleasure of meeting Dell to my knowledge. Maybe I will have the pleasure of meeting you all one day because I do not know a lot of my relatives and i hate to only be in contact at times like these.
