To the family of Darlene,
I am so sorry for your loss. I was one of the cosmetic girls that worked with Darlene at Hess's department store when it first opened , along with Kathy Drake, Mary Ann Willis and Rhonda Chuposka. The five of us shared so many laughs and tears. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for her. God bless her.
