We shared several years of friendship with Al and Rosemary Darbee while living in El Paso Texas. Al was working for Delphi Harrison Thermal Systems to help develop the technical capabilities of the new operations in Juarez Mexico. We shared good times and embraced our experiences within the diverse environment provided by West Texas. Carol and I have retired in Southern CA in 2009 and we send our condolences and best wishes to Rosemary and the rest of Al Darbee's family. Gene and Carol Boyer, Lake Elsinore, CA 92532
