Obituary

Dell was raised in Sherman and graduated from Sherman High School. She was employed with Johnson & Johnson for a number of years and later at Texas Instruments for over thirty years, retiring in 1998.

Dell enjoyed working in her yard, tending to her many flowers, and going fishing when able. She loved being outdoors with her grandkids and great grandkids, who affectionately called her "MamMaw".
