So sorry I did not get to know her better over the years. We left Holcombe in 52' and I did not get to see her again until she and Clyde graciously hosted our 50 year class reunion in 09'. RIP DOLLY. A gracious lady who knew how to entertain. My sympathy to Clyde and family.

I will miss seeing your laugh and our phone chats and reminiscing our childhood memories growing up, out living on our own after High School, and all the times we could get together through the years I like to think of you as one of God's brightest new stars shining in the heavens, full of peace and free of pain. Will remember you always and pray for peace for your family and all who knew you in this time.

Darlene and I were young women together in the early '60's in Minneapolis. We had no money but were busy all of the time just living and having fun. Dolly (as we called her then) and Clyde were engaged then. Life was fun and we enjoyed it to the hilt. I'll keep those memories of you in my heart.

Each flower somehow leaves
a little sweetness in the air,
Each star helps make the sky above
more beautiful and fair
Each kind and thoughtful word or deed
helped bring a smile to someone's face
And the one you loved so much
Helped make the world a better place.

With deepest sympathy to the family. I went to school in Holcombe with Darlene ~ she was 3 or 4 years behind me. I last saw Darlene last year at the all-school reunion. Peace be with you.

A memory of your smile and laughter will last forever...too bad we don't get forever with our loved ones and friends. Forever in a day will you be kept in our hearts, close to us everyday. Told stories will grow like flowers and may God Grant us a peace knowing you are not suffering anymore but one day when we meet again cannot come fast enough.
We will miss you dearly. Thoughts and prayers and much love sent to Clyde and his family.
