Dear Darlene's Family, please accept our expressions of shock and sorrow at the passing of everyone's favorite angel Darlene who worked endlessly helping her friends, family, and apartment mates to enjoy the fruits of their long lives. She will be sorely missed by her apartment neighbors as she always managed to get them food from Railside on Saturday. She stopped by here to visit George Bubb bringing tidbits of juicy news including that time she brought Frosties from Wendy's always with her pal Shirley. She was just here laughing, just here giggling, and was looking forward to this minor heart procedure with the hope of better health. Darlene was a dedicated member of an army of women in this area who look after and care for the elderly with great compassion and enthusiasm. Her loss is a devastating blow to the many people she touched whose cries cannot be read on these pages but whose thoughts multiply these words of praise by a hundred fold. Darlene left us too early, was loved by all, and will be dearly missed. Our condolences - George Bubb and 3 sons (Brian, Dave, Jeff) and our family.
