Delayne was born in Milwaukee on July 4, 1927, and spent most of her life residing in West Allis and Milwaukee, WI. Delayne graduated from West Allis Central HS in 1945, married Robert in 1946, and began growing her family in 1947.
Delayne was a talented seamstress, crafter, Girl Scout leader, and had a love of camping and the outdoors. Bob and Dee belonged to two camping groups which kept them traveling throughout their retirement years. They were snowbirds during the winters in Hudson FL with many like-minded travel companions.
Delayne was an avid Green Bay Packer and Milwaukee Brewers fan. She dressed for the occasion and tried not to miss any of the televised games.
Her family and friends will carry her smiling, playful, and kind spirit in their hearts forever. Rest in peace knowing you are lovingly in the arms of your Lord and Savior. In Lieu of flowers kindly make any donations to the Alzheimer's Association or the Parkinson's Foundation.
