Bryan Mark and I know words can't take away the hurt you're feeling, but we want you to know how much we care. Sending you love and strength in this time of loss. Mark and Dee Parham.
I am so heartbroken to hear Del has passed. I met her at a volunteer event for the Falcons and we became "game day" buddies. She always greeted me with her signature smile and most always had goodies (i.e., Marta/Fan Appreciation cards) she would share. She had such a giving heart and will truly be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Peeples & Sharpe families during this difficult time. Delphine was such a beautiful person and a joy to be in the presence of. I played basketball at Gordon High School with Delphine - she was an awesome and competitive ball player. She will be truly missed, but never forgotten. May God bless and keep you all in his care.

May God surround all those whose lives were blessed to know her with His comfort and support. She was a ray of sunshine to everyone she met. Those she took care of at work were so blessed by her loving, caring, and joyful spirit. We will miss her but know she is at peace. - Mary Lynn Smith
My deepest sympathy for the family of Delphine Peoples Sharpe. As a graduate of Gordon High School class of 1975, I met Delphine. Bright, warm and energetic was she always. Her smile said it all.

Del will be missed by all. A beautiful lady and so endlessly kind and gracious.
I worked with Del for many years although from a distance as I work in California. Her love and caring for others spread across the miles. She always placed the happiness of others as top priority in her world which is what made her a deeply treasured admin and dear friend. She will be sorely missed by all fortunate enough to have known her. May she rest in peace. Love Julia V

Del and I worked together for many years, even though I moved to California, we continued to keep in touch. I consider her a good friend first and then a co-worker. I was deeply saddened to hear she was gone but feel confident she is with her Lord and Savior enjoying a better place.
I miss her laugh, comic relief and smile.
