We moved to losbanos in 1994. He started taking care of my daughter jordan when she had pneumonia she was 5. Six kids later we still went him. He joked about my kids all the time he was kicked yelled at and on on. 25 years later he to still loved my family. He gave advice and love all the time. My kids where pure entertainment. He new when we where in the waiting room from all the comotion. Here is a funny story my abbee was about 4 years old. We where in one of the examine room. All of a sudden we here someone screaming on top of there lungs. My daughter was locked in the bathroom all she had to do was open the door. Instead dr deldin had to leave the patient to take the door knob off to get her out. We had a good laugh. We spent much of my kids life's in his office. I feel like I have lost a part of my family. My kids are now 28 22 21 18 17 and 15. We will never forget him. I love the memory of all his animals and the funny stories about them. He was truly a great man a great doctor. I'm glad to have known him. Thank you for touching our lifes. Love jenni croninger

My deepest sympathy to Tami and all Michael's family. God only takes the best first. He in a place of peace,love and pain free. This was the most wonderful man I have ever met in my life. He saved my daughter's life over and over again. He gave me the strenght to move forward with all of the horrible things I was told my daughter would never do. She is 30 years old and has a full life due to his care and advice. He gave everything he had to help the sick and even those who could not pay. We were blessed to have know him and his kindness for humans and his pets. God Bless you Michael:heart: please bless all of his family in their time of grief:innocent::innocent::innocent:
