My sympathies go out to Darrells' family. He was a great guy and one of the best mechanics that I have ever met. He helped me on my cars several times. Again my condolences. Rip Darrell.

I became friends with Darrell in high school and even though we haven't seen each other in years the mention of his name always brings back some great memories from our youth. we had so much fun being young and doing things that young guys do when they think they are bullet proof. there are a whole bunch of people who know what I am talking about. Darrell was a mans man and I am so sad to know that he is gone. he will live on in all our memories and all the great stories. thank you Darrell for being my friend. I hurt knowing you are gone. time to stop as my eyes are watering. rest in peace now.

R.I.P. Darrell, we had fun riding those fat boys years ago you were a hell of a mechanic.

I'm in shock. He was taken away too soon. I wish I would have realized he had a Facebook account. He was always a great guy, back in the day at North. He was a year behind me. Know a lot of Huskies are broken hearted at our loss. One guy said he was a heck of a mechanic. He will be missed. Prayers and hugs for all of you. May you Rest In Peace Buddy.
