Dear Jerry, Dee, Christine and Scott and to Darlene's children.
I was a classmate of Darlene's. She was truly a caring person, always welcoming, including a variety of friends to her slumber parties. She was beautiful on the inside as she was on the out. She could make me laugh out loud, especially during class when we should have been quiet:). Mischievous, fun-loving, caring young woman. I am so sorry for your loss.
