Darnell, I was sadden to here of the news of your departure from this place. I remember you told me the last time we saw each other, "I'll see you next time". Well Darnell, our plans are not God's plans. I am glad we saw each other when we did. Rest in peace "cuz".

Darnell, words can not describe the sadness that I feel in my heart. You left without saying "good-bye" or "I'm gone." But what you did leave with me were very fond memories that I will always treasure. You were such a jewel. You were always there for me when I needed you. Never saying "no" when I would ask you to drive for me, check my oil in the car,....whatever. You will be greatly missed. You brought joy to many lives. I know that you are in a better place where there's no more suffering or sickness. I'll see you when I get there. For now rest in peace. I love you but God loved you best.

I can't believe this day came so so soon. I wish we had longer together, but the experience and relationship with you was great. Our happy thoughts together and with the kids will always keep you close to my heart. We came a long way together. We grew stronger together. I will continue to use every tool that you taught me to use. You brought me a long way and I THANK YOU. I know you are in a better place. I know you will welcome me with open arms the next time I see u. Watch over us. And keep all lines of communication open. I am LISTENING. Keep Ryan chips and juice coming.I gotcha! LOVE FOREVER AND EVER,
