My First Christmas In Heaven



I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below, with tiny lights like Heaven's stars, reflecting on the snow.



The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away the tear, for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.



I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear, but the sounds of music can't compare, with the Christmas choir up here.



I have no words to tell you the joy their voices bring, for it is beyond description to hear the Angels sing.



I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart, but I am not so far away, we really aren't apart.



So be happy for me, dear ones, you know I hold you dear, and be glad that I'm spending Christmas with Jesus this year.



I send you each a special gift from my heavenly home above, I send you each a memory of my undying love.



After all, love is a gift, more precious than pure gold, it was always most important in the stories Jesus told.



Please love and keep each other as may Father has said to do, for I can't count the blessings or love He has for each of you.



So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear, remember, I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

We met darcy this spring when we bought out at Thunder. We spent many days Wake boarding,wood cutting and just enjoying the outdoors together. D,Arcy always was a lot of fun to be around. He made the time at the cabin so much more to look forward too. It is going to be tough to look across the street and know you are no longer with us. Denise,Kirsten,Alyssa. We are all going to miss him. Hope Heaven is ready for him. Only the good die young.

Forever in our Hearts

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Len Checknita and was Darcy's bosses boss. Darcy started his career with Centrilift on July 1, 1997, about 7 years ago. When we hired Darcy, he worked as a machinist on the shop floor. True to form he did his job well and was well respected by his peers, manufacturing staff and management for his high level of competency and professionalism. An opening occurred in our service group around the October 2000 timeframe for a special Service Technician to support a very specific, special product line in our market. In order to advance his career, Darcy applied for the position and we very gladly transitioned him into his role. During the remainder of his career, Darcy continued to demonstrate an exceptional work ethic, was respected by the customer base he worked with and again by his peers and management within Centrilift. On behalf of Baker Hughes Centrilift, we take this opportunity to express our deepest condolances & respesct to Darcy and his family at this time. Darcy will be missed by all at Centrilift. Thank you and God Bless Darcy and his family.

A famous quotation says "Because I have loved life, I shall have no sorrow to die". D'Arcy loved life and lived it to the fullest. My deepest sympathy to his family and friends. I have seen him grow from a teenager to fine young man who had a passion for many things. He will be missed by all whose lives he touched.

I remember D'arcy from when we were both teenagers. We worked together at Mcdonalds. We were both crewchiefs. We spent alot of time together after work partying with friends like Chris Barnes, Steve Clement, and Rick Ewles. We had some great times. I wish to offer my deepest sympathies to Pamela and the two young girls. D'arcy was a good friend and he will be missed by all who knew him. Stuart Riley
