Delano was accompanied by his wife Margaret during a private ceremony in Austin, TX. Both Delano and Margaret attended UT, and the high school sweethearts have been longtime JB Goodwin agents. Together they have raised 5 children, and are leaving a wonderful legacy for their 16 grand children. In fact their grandson Scott Womack, recently joined JBGoodwin REALTORS® and will be pursuing a promising career in real estate. Congrats Del!
