I first got to meet him at Ave Maria in Jamestown. Ferns mom was my mothers room mate. . He made a big rubarb pie, looked like he made it in a cake pan. But it was so good. Fern Dianne and I will be in touch.

Sincere sympathy to Fern, Bruce, and April, I’m very sorry to hear about Delmer’s passing. Most memories of him are from church. In memory, I see him as always smiling and very sociable. I know he will be dearly missed. I am praying for his family to be comforted with the knowledge that he is safe with the Lord. God bless the memory of Delmer Sukit.

It was an honor to know Delmer, I purchased a combine from Delmer, he did a lot of custom combining up here in the Tappen area. It was always a joy to visit with him. Delmer would take his shirt off his back for anyone that needed help. He was one hec of a pinochle player. It was just an honor to know him
