Darryl D. Booker

Hey Uncle Darryl, found this site and really enjoyed reading all the lovely words about you. You passed when I was young but your spirit and love for me never left. It´s so interesting to hear all the different perspectives and experiences people had with you. I have a babygirl now that looks just like that baby that was sitting on your lap. I think she would live up to my nickname firecracker more than I would. I love you and there isn´t a day I don´t think about you. -Love firecracker

Hey Dad, your birthday recently passed and today is Memorial Day. I had a friend stopped to tell me "thank you for your dad service and sacrifice for this country" and I'll admit that it made me a bit emotional but super proud to be your daughter. Your life meant so much to so many people and it still does to this day. You have left an incredible Legacy behind and I truly think that no one will be able to fill your shoes, but we all will make our best efforts to make sure your Legacy...

Remembering and Honoring you today Brother-in-law, Thank you a million times over for the ultimate sacrifices that you made for our country. We are missing you today and everyday, You are forever in our hearts. RIH Darryl

On January 4, 2007, I was able to speak to Darryl for the last time. We had a good times laughing. We talked for a while and the last words that he said to me was "Mom I love you" and we ended the call. Now that is something that I will never forget. I want all to know that my son is absent from his earthly body and he is present with the Lord. I miss him and today is Memorial Day (2021). I am so grateful that he gave his life to Christ. This is a message to all that is reading this. Give...

Hey SSG Booker, I still remember you every single Memorial Day. I didn´t know you well, but well enough that you made a lasting impression on me even 14 years later. I wish you were able to be here with your family and friends, as they clearly miss you so much. I´m glad they named a road after you, your memory should be honored and kept alive.

Hey Dad, with so much going on in the world today and all the excitement about today's inauguration, I can't help but think about you during this day. To still see how many people who are remembering and honoring you today holds a special place in my heart. So many people here love and miss you so much, including me. I felt a little different to celebrate my 30th without you physically being here, but I know that you are watching and protecting over me each and every day. I love you so much Dad.
