I worked with Della for many years at the Georgia Department of Education. Della was smart and talented and was appreciated by all for her gentle spirit, kindness, and grace. I don't believe I ever saw a time when she was not smiling. She was a beautiful human being, both inside and out. Our troubled world would be a much better place if we had more people like Della. My deepest sympathies and prayers to Della's family. Erin Elmore

I also worked with Della at GADOE in Atlanta. We'd often run into each other in the parking garage and take the elevator to our respective floors. In that brief time, we'd pack in many family stories, always parting on a high note. Della was always pleasant company. Fly away, dear Della. Fly away!

Since childhood, Della and I were friends. We attended the same Church and were proud members of the Valdosta High School Class of 1979. She was smart, fun to be with and always willing to assist a person in need. She truly believed in family and friendship. Condolences to the family πŸ™

My heart hurts hearing this news. I worked with Della for many years at GaDOE where we spent numerous nights laughing and talking when most had ended their work day and had left for the day. She felt like family to me. Rest In Peace sweet Della, love youπŸ™πŸ™πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜Linda Myers

When I think of my conversations with Della, they always began with her kind smile and infectious laugh. I hope her light continues to shine bright through those she touched.

I was lucky enough to work with Della for over a decade at the Georgia Department of Education. My nickname for her was "Bella Della" because she was beautiful inside and out.

Our personal chats often included stories of her daughters and grandchildren. She loved her family dearly, and my thoughts are with you all during this time. Amanda Buice
