I was so very sorry to learn of Delos' passing! He was such an honorable man with upstanding morals/values, devoted to God and family.
May you take comfort in knowing he is with His Maker and hold tight to the wonderful memories you all shared!

Karen, Kevin and family, my heart is broken for you all. I know the heartache of losing a husband, sibling and uncle from cancer. It is a very hard road during that time of their sickness but we know he is not suffering anymore. It is still a loss to everyone no matter if we do know this so my prayers are with all of you. Please call if I can do anything fir any of you. God bless you all.

We would like to offer our condolences to Karen & family of Delos. We are praying for you Karen , I know you will miss him . We will always treasure the memories we made in the time we spent with you both. There is no words to describe how much we will miss him. We are so glad that we got to visit with him last Thursday . It was a GOD appointed visit & we realized that when we saw him. We got to tell him how much he meant to us & pray with him. Delos has been Ray’s best friend since college. He is one of a kind. Although they might not see each other for weeks at a time they both knew if one needed the other all they had to do was call. Our hearts are broken but like we told Dee before we left him, we will see you on the other side where we will enjoy eternity with our loved ones & king JESUS forever. Rip our friend ! You are the winner ! We love you ! Prayers for Karen & the family !

All who knew him will forever remember Delos Monteith for his kindness, character, good humor, and simple human decency. I have never worked with a better person than Delos; his intellect, personable demeanor, and commitment to his work made him legendary and beloved by all at SCC. He was one of the good guys, and he will be forever missed by those fortunate enough to have known him.

Chelsea and I would like to extend our deepest sympathies to Karen and all members of Delos's family. Delos was one of the greatest individuals I have ever had the pleasure of meeting - there simply aren't sufficient words to describe his character and to articulate what a great person he was. It was an honor to know him and I am personally, forever grateful that I had the opportunity to know and work with him.

Dear Karen and Family,
While the loss of Delos is tragic, his life is celebrated by all who knew him at the College, in the Community, at Church, with Family and where ever he worked with others. While quiet, reflective, and dedicated to the task at hand, he cared deeply for others, especially his family, church and community members, and his college colleagues. Delos dearly loved the people of western NC, especially their rich and vibrant culture steeped in the traditions of the mountain folk. May God Comfort and Bless You ---- Linda and Cecil Groves
