Dear Judy, Dave & Barb, Brad & Jessica, and all the Sproul & Taman families: We extend our sincere condolences on Delmar’s passing. I was grateful to have had a chat with Delmar a few weeks ago, and he said “he’d had a good run”. Always a practical thinker who offered sound business advice. Delmar gave David C. his first full-time job when he graduated high school in the early ’70’s. Delmar & his crew at Delmar Sproul Construction had some great stories to tell of hard work and fun times, including building a few houses in the Nile area, and lots of barn concrete work. Delmar was a generous, & much appreciated, supporter of local sports teams. Our girls, Colleen & Mallory, always called him “Uncle Delmar”. Lots of good memories to cherish.

To all of Delmars family.
Another kind soul has left our community. I always enjoyed any conversation or dealings that I had with Delmar. He was a true gentleman.
Jean & Randy Pentland
We have many fond memories of Delmar, if we needed advice, I’d just give him a call.I loved our trips to Kitchener sale when I was young. Mom and Dad enjoyed all their excursions with Delmar& Judy, when they left for a trip, you never knew where they would end up visiting or when they’d be home again.
You were a great guy, we are sure gonna miss you!
