MASINO, Jr., Delfino, "Del" (74) Passed away on Tuesday, June 15th, after a valiant fight against lung cancer. Born in Schulter, OK, on September 9th, 1929, to Italian immigrants. Del moved with his family to Southern California in 1934.
A strong-willed, competetive man, Del moved through life with fierce determination, achieving success in many areas. He loved to recall his high school days where he excelled in gymnastics and football. He developed a passion for boating, water-skiing, and drag boat racing. A member of the National Drag Boat Association, in the early 1970s, his boat Playmate won world records for blown-gas flatbottom and blown-gas hydro. Del was a plastering contractor for over 40 years; he truly loved his work. In 1992, he opened his first of three soundstages, Delfino Studios in Sylmar.
A devoted family man, Del is survived by his wife Linda; sons Michael and Jeffrey Masino; daughter Cheryl Foerster; stepson John Phillips; grandchildren Angela, Richard, Chantal, James, Jake, and Tanner; and sister Carmen Donia.
Del touched many lives with his caring and generosity. He will be greatly missed by his many friends and loving family.
