Darrell loved Football and stayed a dedicated Dallas Cowboy fan whether they were winning or losing. He loved going to Ruidoso to enjoy the mountains and tall pines. One of the highlights of his life was seeing the ocean while visiting his niece, in Gulf Shores, Alabama.
Darrell was a one-of-a-kind son, brother, uncle, and friend. He never met a stranger and always knew how to make everyone laugh and feel at ease.
Darrell worked as a roughneck in his early years and as a plumber for On Point Plumbing for many years up until his illness. He was laughing and making jokes up until his last days.
