He was the son of the late Leroy and Rebecca Lenoir. Dell was born January 8, 1947, in Port Gibson, MS. Dell graduated from Reeths-Puffer High School in 1965.

He suffered an injury in battle and was awarded the Purple Heart. His family, friends, and the citizens of this country are forever grateful for his service. After an honorable discharge, Dell made his home in Muskegon, MI, where he enjoyed racing and working on cars, fishing on his boat, and hanging out with his grandchildren and friends.
