Not sure what to say?





My great uncle Bill was one of the most upbeat guys I ever had the pleasure of getting to know growing up. From the first time my Grandma and Ma had my Uncle Bill and Mary baby sit me. I was so young I cried so hard I threw up, but by the end of the night a movie selection of 300 VHS I didn't want to leave. Going miss your jokes and seeing you at Christmas.

Love Nicholas Darken

I will miss your kind and generous heart. You and Mary were so good to me and made me feel like I was part of your family. I smile when I think of that twinkle in your eye when telling one of your jokes. I hope that they have chocolate and cashews in "heaven"
My thoughts and prayers are with you always.

The best uncle ever we are going to miss you so much Uncle Bill

January 27, 2015

I miss you so much already, Papa, but I am so happy you aren't in pain anymore. I'm incredibly lucky to have had you in my life. I was telling Lukas some funny stories about us the other day...like the time I opened the fridge and the eggs fell and broke on the floor.

Love you so much!
