These messages were originally posted on the IRC Message board in the days following Del's death in March of 1999. At the time, I didn't try to save them myself, I'm not sure why. Thankfully, someone else did. One day I found a binder in my mailbox at ImprovOlympic. In it were the following messages. Someone had taken the time to copy them and assemble them and give copies out to dozens of people around town. And they did it anonymously. If that person is reading, thank you.

If you are interested in finding out more about Del, I would suggest starting at the Del Close Resource at ImprovOlympic's web site.
