A Time To Live
Del-Lano received his education from the Prince George's County Public School system. He graduated from Crossland High School in 1982. He furthered his education by attending DeVry Institute in Atlanta, Georgia. Del-lano worked as an Administrative Support Specialist for over 25 years and as an insurance Underwriter for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) in conjunction with FEMA.

Del-Lano attended The Sanctuary Church under the Pastoral care of Pastor Anthony Macklin, and in 2005 received the right hand of fellowship. He would often attempt to quote a scripture or two but, mid way through he would stop and say "Read the Bible it's in there.".....lol
A Time To Laugh
His stellar gift of making people laugh, shown through his joking around and dancing, will never be forgotten. Growing up, Del-Lano enjoyed playing basketball dominating anyone who stepped on the court. He also enjoyed meeting new people, especially the ladies :)and family gatherings. His favorite pastime was watching the Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Champions (back in the day!) football games, playing spades and dominoes. To date, Del-Lano is considered one of the best dominoes player amongst his family and friends. One of his favorite things to do was talking about his pride and joy, his baby girl Victoria.
