Hi Bev,
The following is straight from the Mac Help in 10.3.9.  I hope this covers what 
you are
after.

Cheers,

Deleting a user account

If you are an administrator for your computer, you can delete user accounts on 
your
computer that are no longer needed.


When you delete a user account, you can choose to save the user's files or 
delete them.


IMPORTANT: If the user's account is encrypted (FileVault is turned on), turn 
FileVault
off for the user before you delete the account. For information about turning 
FileVault
off, click "Tell me more."

Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name 
and
password.
Select the user account you want to delete, then click Delete (-).
Click OK to save the user's files on the computer, or click Delete Immediately 
to remove
the user account and all the user's files.

If you saved the user's files, they are stored in a disk image in the Deleted 
Users
folder, which is in the Users folder on your Mac OS X disk. To see the saved 
files,
double-click the disk image in the Deleted Users folder. You can drag the disk 
image to
the Trash to delete the files.
