Not sure what to say?

Our condolences to Roy and family. I went from grade school through high school with Darlene but haven't been in touch with her since they moved from Boise. We are updating our databases in preparation for a 2020 reunion of 1950 Boise High classmates and I just ran across Darlene's obituary. So sorry to have missed corresponding with her.

Sister King was loved by all the missionaries in the Mexico Monterrey Mission during their service. I was blessed to be a missionary at the time; her kindness and love will always be appreciated. Best Wishes to President King and your lovely family.

Roy and family,
We are sad to hear of Darlene's passing. We remember her so well for her testimony of the Book of Mormon and her love for family history. She has been an inspiration to us and her suggestions and example have enriched our lives and that of our family. We love her and we love you, Roy. May you find peace in the promise of the Lord you will be together again.

I'll never forget Sister King, and the kindness and love she showed to a bunch of society's castoffs: inmates at the Utah State Prison. She directed the choir, and in doing so shared the true compassion, and love of our Savior.

Her example, caring, humor, and unconditional love, changed many lives. It sure changed mine. I know, for a fact, that if it weren't for her, my life would be much different now. I was a member of that choir, and while many guys I did time with returned to the...
