I've been truly saddened by the news of Darrell's passing. There is no doubt his benevolent caring lifestyle has been rewarded by a cruse to a far better place. He was blessed with having many good friends and his girlfriend Sue's peerless courage when the going got tougher than tough. May he rest in peace......
