Dear Mrs Fernandes, Lynn & George,
I just learned of Darlene's passing and know you must be devastated at such a huge loss. I'm so sorry. She is so special and is irreplaceable. She always had a twinkle in her eye like she had a special secret and she was always so easy to share that mischievous smile of hers. I love Darlene and always will. My biggest regret is falling out of touch with her and letting all these years pass by. I did try to find her online at facebook. If you ever want to sit and talk about her I'd be so happy to oblige. My heart is aching. God bless you and your family
