Obituary of Del Westergaard

Passed on Sunday, December 13th, 2015 in Lake Havasu, his home of forty years. Born in Albert Lea, Minnesota on January 15th, 1944 to James & Ethel with siblings, Ed, Bob, Janet and Roy. He moved to Southern California and met his wife, Marian; they had two children, Jon and Joyce. The family would like his friends to gather this Saturday at their home on Goldsprings Road at 2:00 pm for a "Celebration of his Life". Joyce … Our Dad left us and we love and miss you so much. I have never known another man like you; you were truly one of a kind. Your hard work and your strength and stubbornness rubbed off on us and you made us who we are today. Dad was a free spirited rebel and he was our true life stunt man and Idol. God received one kick ass Angel this Sunday. He was a wheeling, dealing, treasure hunter and he was a real treasure to us. He was our diamond in the rough, rest in peace Dad. Jon… All of us have that person that impacts our life like no other... The one driving force that can push you harder then you knew you could go... Most of us find that in our father and for my Mother, my sister and me, that extraordinary force was her husband and our father, Del... He moved on Sunday to somewhere he can walk without pain and live with a robust energy. He went to find a new home for his family, one that will take him years to perfect… He led us through life with no fear, no doubt and an indomitable spirit.... Peace Dad... You are my Hero, Joyce's Hero and Mom's soul mate and truly the love of her life.... Services were placed in the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home and Crematory.
