My dear sweet uncle Darrell, it is so sad to see you leave us so soon but you are in a better place reunited with you wife and many close family members. I love you so much and you will be missed dearly. Your memory will always be kept alive. I remember all the stories and jokes that you and my dad would tell and have all of us laughing so hard. You left a legacy down here for your kids and relatives. RIP Uncle Darrell until we meet again.
