Best all-day quarterback ever. Football in the street on Hillwood in the 70's. Telephone pole to telephone pole. Darrell was so generous with his time and tolerance of us "kids." So many great memories.

My friend Darrell Meadows. A super guy and friend who showed me how to swing a golf club. He gave me my first club, a seven iron. The only round of golf I ever played was with Darrell, nine holes. My sympathy to the Meadows family.
