He was preceded in death by his parents; his half-brothers Victor, Vivian and Virtus Higgins; Lyall, Lloyd and Leslie Frazier; his half-sisters Viva and Violet (Higgins); Leona, Juanita and Lucille (Frazier); and his sister Sylvia Hetrick. His family moved from Kansas to Glens Ferry area in 1936 and later settled in Dixie, near Notus and Caldwell. He graduated from Notus High School in 1950 and married Dorothy Boatman December 15, 1952. That marriage ended in May, 1975. Del then married Evy Graves June 28, 1976. Del had three loves: His family, his church, and the outdoors. As a young man, he was a champion marksman. He rode bareback in the Caldwell Night and other rodeos and later competed in the wild horse race for several years. He loved to hunt and fish and passed his passion for the outdoors on to his sons and grandchildren. In his later years, he became an avid golfer and was learning to fly fish. He had a beautiful voice and enjoyed singing in his church choir. He also enjoyed manning the Christmas tree and fireworks booth for his church. He was a devoted follower of Jesus Christ and knew that in serving his fellow man, he was serving his Savior. Del was a respected businessman starting in the glass business at Superior Paint and Glass. He later became the manager of the glass department of Caldwell Paint and Glass, and then purchased City Glass and Muffler from which he retired. Funeral services will be at the First Assembly of God “The Domes” at 821 North 16th Avenue, Caldwell, Idaho beginning at 2:00 PM Wednesday, April 11, 2012. A family viewing will begin at 1:00 PM at the church. Interment will follow services at Canyon Hill Cemetery.
