Joe Delia is remembered by many as a good friend... Charles and - TopicsExpress



          

Joe Delia is remembered by many as a good friend... Charles and I were the teachers at Skwentna School in 1999-2000 (the last year the school was open, unfortunately). It was our first year in Alaska and we were so excited about our new adventure. We always looked forward to mail days (Tuesday and Thursday), when we would make the trip across the river to the post office to get the mail. Joe was always there with a smile and a story. He always made us feel welcome and his beagle, Mack, was a playmate for our black lab. Everyone knew, trusted, and loved Joe Delia. He was Skwentna to many. Joe and Norma were always kind and helpful and we wish we’d had more time there with them. Joe will be missed by so many. Our love and condolences to Norma.
