Darryl Mason Obituary

Town of Newburgh, NY

Darryl Everett Mason, a resident of the Town of Newburgh, passed away April 13, 2010 in St. Luke's Cornwall Hospital, Newburgh. He was 26.

Darryl had attended Waynesburg University and was a graduate of Mt. Mary's College in Newburgh where he received a degree in Communications in June 2006. He worked as an IT Technician for the Poughkeepsie School System and then for PC America in Pearl River as a Communications Specialist.

Darryl is a beloved brother, son and friend. He had a remarkable grasp of computer technology, which he shared freely with everyone who ever asked him always with a willing heart. He had a great sense of humor, and will be best remembered for his free and energetic spirit. He loved to act, and took several cameo roles in school plays, his last while a student at Mt. St. Mary's. He will be sorely missed.
