Uncle Darryl was the sweetest. A real OG. Always smiling, joking and laughing no matter what was going on or what he was going thru. I´m not his biological niece, but he surely did look at me like I was. Never left me out. You´re going to be missed and never forgotten. Rest well Uncle Darryl. Love you always and forever!

I will remain coo crazy and bananas () that's one of his favorite sayings. POPZ I LOVE YOU IN THIS LIFE AND THE NEXT. CONTINUE TO S.I.P
