My heart is broken but I know Uncle Darrell is with our Lord. He was very special to me.
He was not only my Uncle but my God Father. I have so many memories growing up staying with him,Aunt Sue and Traci during my summers in San Diego. I was blessed to attend his Retirement ceremony with my mom. We were so proud.
Thank you Uncle Darrell for everything you did for me and the great love you had for me and your family. Please give Aunt Sue and Mom a kiss for me in heaven. I’m going to miss you.
Heavenly love,
Barbie

Tracy, I want you to know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this time of loss.
I was so happy to get to see him at our class reunion. We had a lot of laughs about the fun back in the old school days.
With Love,
