My sincere condolences to the family of Mrs. Jerry Delk. Words cannot describe the impact Mrs. Delk made as an advocate for people with disabilities, not only in Alabama, but in the United States and beyond. We met several years ago when our agency, the Governor's Office on Disability, presented Mrs. Delk with an award from the Governor. We shared a common bond, a passion for helping people with disabilities, often one person at a time. Equally as important, we became friends and then family, as we often referred to ourselves as sisters. The world, and mine, is truly a better place because of Mrs. Delk. I will miss her but I know where she is and will see her again!
