Not sure what to say?

Uncle Darrell will always live in our memory. He was a great man with lots of love around him !

ALways remember the good times with your grandpa and cherish those memories.

Martha & Family, I am very sorry about the passing of your father. Everytime, in the past, when I came to L.R. and I was at Dorothy's (across the street) from where Mr. & Mrs. Anderson lived, he always came over and spoke for a few minutes, always shook my hand as the gentlemen he was. God Bless You All.

Ruth Thompson Cary (Dorothy Wither's sister)

I haven't seen Darrell since I was a small child, but I have wonderful memories of him and the whole family. I was very sad to hear of his passing from my grandmother this morning. We are all thinking of your family and wish you peace in this terrible time.
With much love,
