James Barry Delk

Visitation Services will be held Friday, February 23rd at 4pm at First Baptist Church of Pompano Beach, service immediately to follow at 5pm.

Barry was born in Pompano Beach to James "Jimmy" and Bebe Delk on October 8th, 1952. As a young man Barry followed his father in the family business. He became part owner of Jimmy Delk Produce in 1994, and carried that on successfully for many years.

Barry was an avid outdoorsman for all his life. He enjoyed fishing and hunting, and as his sons came of age he taught them and their friends. He loved taking his boat over to Bimini to fish, and enjoyed hunting with friends in Texas. He also loved growing vegetables in his yard, and always had a green thumb.

As his sons grew older, Barry's home has been the gathering place for James, Joe, and all their friends. For many years he has been happiest when the house was full of his boys and their crew. Barry was a great cook and enjoyed feeding many whenever they came. He taught many young men skills they can carry on.

Barry is preceded in death by his father: Jimmy, and grandparents: Harvey and Georgia Cheshire.

He is survived by his mother: Bebe, sons: James and Joseph, and sisters: Carol and Gail, and the mother of his children: Fran Garnick.
