Rory was a passionate woman, believer in Jesus Christ and was unashamed about sharing her faith. She had a love of learning and studying the history of America, Israel, and the Bible. She was a charismatic communicator, conversationalist, with an artistic flare and attention to detail making her a great storyteller. Rory's love for her family was central to who she was as a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. Spending time with family bike riding, wine tasting, hiking, camping, water skiing, and house boating on Shasta Lake brought her great joy. Known by her friends as an encourager, prayer warrior, positive, up-beat person and a strong faith-filled woman; known by her grandchildren as Grandma Lodi, or Grandma Sparkle. She has greatly blessed her family and will be remembered and truly missed. Rory is survived by her husband of 47 years, Ray Delgado, her three children Robynn, Roy, and Reid, her six grandchildren, and her sister, Elie Kelly.
A memorial service will be held on Sunday, June 8, 2014, at 1pm, at Bethel Church in Lodi (760 South Ham Lane, Lodi, California 95242) with a reception-gathering immediately following. In Rory's honor, and per her request for a joyful celebration, white, light, and bright/cheerful attire is preferred. And of course, sparkle is most definitely welcome!
Donations can be made to the following organizations in Rory's memory as they were both close to her heart. Pregnancy Resource Center of Lodi www.procoflodi.org/ and Alyn Hospital / Israel - Transforming Children's Disabilities into Abilities www.alynhospitalfriends.org/ .
