there a quick and
simple way of doing this? can someone post an example?

Just guessing without more detailed information, but are the tables related one-to-many using foreign keys? If so, when defining the foreign key you can set the delete to cascade whenever a "master" row is deleted:

alter table foo
  add constraint foo_fk foreign key [...]
  on delete cascade;

...or something like that.
