I am so sorry for your loss. Darla was always fun to be with. I’ve known her since we were in high school. I went to Ottoville and the Delphos girls would come down to Millie’s. We are going to miss her in our Red Hat group, she always kept track of things for us, our secretary. You will have many wonderful memories of her
