Kelly as I said my heart breaks for you! But you have to keep going. Think of the best memory of Dad and hold it in your heart forever. I know it is tough but you will make it! Love always, Darlene

Aunt Donna, I am so sorry for our loss. A Mother should never have to bury their child but...it happens. So just hold Darren in your heart. He was always good at getting a good laugh and had the biggest heart. All my love, Darlene.
