David & Lester,
I just heard of your loss. As I prepare to send heartfelt condolences there is a reflection of Darryl that warms my spirit. Even as the little boy who lived across the street, Darryl was blessed with an insight on God’s desire for the love we should extend to one another. I will always remember Darryl's addicting smile and his warm approach with fondness. No matter the lapse of time, I was blessed to be among those who Darryl made feel special each time we met. He had a way about him that was endearing to all who were blessed to have made his acquaintance. As I think of Darryl I smile.
To his family and love ones, I pray there is peace with you and when you reflect, think of Darryl’s smile and you will keep smiling. May God continue to be with and bless you through it all. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Love You!

Till we meet again, Bro Darryl. The book of Romans tells us in 8:11 11And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, [then] He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit Who dwells in you. Thank you Father for eternal life. Minister Al and Andrella Covington

To My Buddy Darryl: You and I have been best friends since Jr.High (KD Waldo). I am trying to fight back the tears as I write this because it is so hard to believe you are no longer here. No matter what either of us went thru in this life, the good and the bad, we stuck by each other although we were miles away. You were always my biggest supporter no matter what came against me. I will truly miss you.

Darryl will truly be missed from his big smile to the respect he had for others. I grew up and went to school with him and played on the basketball team with him. I never heard anybody have a bad thing to say about him, he also enjoyed fishing like myself and we would sit on the fish bank and just talk about life. My prayers go out to family and anything I can do please let me know, god be with us all.
