She was preceded in death by her parents, Olegario and Adela C. Sanchez. Della was born July 6, 1918 in Old Town. She loved her parents and family, and they were the most important part of her life. She was the last of the Alvarado Hotel's Harvey Girls and was so proud to have been able to be one of them. Della's time at church, Our Lady of Fatima, and her time with friends in the Women's Guild were her most treasured moments. Gallagher Hall was where everybody knew her name. She will be sorely missed. Rosary will be recited Monday, September 7, 2009, 7:00 p.m., at French Mortuary, University Blvd. Chapel. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 10:00 a.m. at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, 4020 Lomas NE.
