Delbert Feldman
1928 - 2012
Ankeny

Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, October 2 at Saylorville Baptist Church in Des Moines. Visitation will be held at the church on Monday evening from 5 to 8 p.m. at the church.

Delbert was born on January 26, 1928 in Litchfield, Nebraska to Hayo and Helen Feldman. As a young boy, he moved with his family to Van Meter, Iowa, then as a teen to Polk City, Iowa. It was in Polk City that he met his future wife, Ginny Waldo, and accepted Jesus Christ as his personal savior. Delbert and Ginny were united in marriage on June 18, 1948.

After their wedding, Delbert and Ginny moved to Saylorville. Delbert was fortunate to land a job at John Deere Des Moines Works where he was proud to work for 30 years until his retirement. Shortly after starting at John Deere, he built a house for Ginny and himself. He learned that he loved building and continued his home-building business in the Ankeny area from the 1950s until the mid-1980s. After his retirement, he continued to be a tireless worker at his church, in his garden, and helping friends, neighbors, and family.

Delbert was a family man and took great joy in his children, Steve, Nancy, and John, and his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

In 2009, Delbert lost the love of his life, Ginny. He is survived by his children Steven of Palatka, FL, Nancy of Duluth, MN, and John (Teri) of Alleman, IA. He is also survived by his grandchildren Rebecca Feldman de Torres (Jose Luis) of Guadalajara, Mexico, David Feldman (Crystal) of Winterset, IA, Sarah Malone (Jonathan) of Shawnee, KS, Molly Feldman and Seth Feldman both of Duluth, MN, and Ashley and Tom Feldman of Alleman, IA. He is also survived by six great-grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother, Lonnie Feldman (Anne) of Ankeny, IA, and his sister, Linda Stackhouse (Dennis) of Polk City, IA.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Ginny, his parents, and sisters, Arlene and Lila.
