I first met Del at my 1972 NOAC Planning Conference at Schiff Scout Reservation. In 1977 we received the DSA award together . – Dennis Kohl
I did not know Del at all. He came to the same place my mother in law is at and I knew who he was. I always found him in the house to say Hi as I wanted him to feel known and loved at his new place. He always waved hi and had a smile. Always a smile!! – Paula Hopkins
I met Mr. Loder when I first started working at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. He would make the trek from Seattle to Ashland, OR to spend a few days experiencing theatre. He was always kind and engaging and eager to talk about the plays he was enjoying and even those that he did not. We will miss seeing him here. – Doreen O’Skea
