Don't actually delete the user while she still has entries. Just mark
her as inactive or whatever is appropriate. If the entries are still
of interest then it may be of interest who created the entry even if
she has gone.

Company
has_many :users
has_many :entries, :through => :users

Then you can say @company.entries
