Just wanted to say how very sorry I am to hear of Darren's death. To say I'm shocked is such a huge understatement. Words cannot express my grief or sorrow for all his family and friends. I met him over 30 years ago when I became a Whiteside(his mother's maiden name) and he was never anything but kind and loving to me. He had a beautiful smile and an infectious laugh. I'm so very sorry I can not be at the service due to my work schedule. I am there in spirit and giving hugs to each of you. Again, please accept my deep condolences for each of you.
