Darlene worked cleaning homes and was the church custodian for the Lutheran and Methodist churches in Janesville for many years. She worked up until her cancer diagnosis in 2023. She had a strong faith and was an active member of Messiah Lutheran Church in Janesville and was a member of ALCW. She served as the church treasurer for many years as well. She enjoyed visiting with the church ladies and the fellowship they shared. She never met a sweet treat she didn't like.

I have many happy memories of the Mohr girls, with Darlene being the oldest of the four. Those were the good old days growing up in the country.
