I just heard that Darrell passed away by calling Allstate and I was shocked and will never hear his voice. He was my agent for over 10 yrs and felt he was a good friend first and agent second. Your family will be in my prayers. I will miss him alot. Vivian

Pop-Pop was my grandfather and a great man. He led a life of love and virtue. He was dedicated to his family, his community, and his country. It was truly a blessing having such a commendable man in my life for so long to teach us to live a life devoted to God. I love you dearly Pop-Pop, may you rest in peace with the Lord.
