He was born in rural Poplar Bluff, MO to Walter and Emily Sample. He was the youngest of their six children.
Delbert was The Father Of Glenna, Glenn (Who Passed Away October 17,2006) Brenda, Kathy, Sharon and Gary.
As a young boy Delbert fell from a very large tree in the school yard. His arm was severely damaged and became badly infected, the doctor wanted to amputate it. His Mother refused. His father took him to see the doctor in town daily by way of a horse drawn wagon to insure they were doing all that could be done to save that arm. They nursed that arm back to relatively good health. He worked as a farm laborer and at a CC camp clearing lumber as a young man. He also worked in landscape, tool and dye, bartender and janitor.
He Is Very Much Loved And Missed.

You Are A True Earth Angel.
GOD DID NOT TAKE ME FROM YOU,
HE ONLY TOOK MY HAND.
If Roses Grow In Heaven Lord,
Please Pick A Bunch For Me.
Place Them In Her Loving Arms
And Tell Her They're From Me.
Tell Her That We Love And Miss Her,
And When She Turns To Smile,
Place A Kiss Upon Her Cheek
And Hold It For Awhile.
Because Remembering Her Is Easy.
Her Loved Ones Do It Every Day.
But There's An Ache Within Our
Hearts For Her,
That Will Never Go Away.
She Was A Wonderful Mother And Is Loved And Missed So Very Much By All Who Knew Her.
