He coached with passion and lived that way. We had so much fun at SSC/SSU and he helped create fond memories for all of us that were there during his time as coach.
May God now keep you to his right hand.

Life.....so fragile, Loss....so sudden, Heart....so broken,...in the wake of such a loss, we are haunted by things we don't, and may never understand. Yet the solace we seek may not come from answers. So we look for comfort in the belief of love's everlasting connection. May that love lift you and hold you close, and give you peace.
Thanks for sharing Daryl with Pendleton High School he will always be a Bulldog!

To the Family of Daryl C. McNeill, Sr.,
May God strengthen your hearts, minds and souls in the days, months, weeks, and years ahead as you mourn the loss of Daryl. He was special to you and a host of other people. He left an impact on every soul that he met. He changed hearts and lives for good. Daryl was always positive and saw the best in others.
Through his coaching and other experiences in life, he has left a legacy that will never be able to be erased.
May we all rest in the fact that we loved Daryl but God loved him best.
May you rest in the precious memories that you will always have of Daryl.
Absent, for the Christian, is immediatedly present with the Lord. We rejoice that Daryl loved the Lord and is present with Him now.
God bless,
