Bobbie & Family,
Our class reunions will never be the same without him. Darrell was so special to all of us, especially those of us who had known him all our lives. He was truly one of a kind and the best at everything he did. The minute he entered the room, it lit up with his laughter and fun. He was just a joy to be around. There'll never be another Darrell and he'll always be loved, remembered, and missed. Our love and condolences to all of you and everyone who loved him as we did.
