The loss felt by so many cannot be described. To have known Darrell was to be truly blessed. Darrell brightened so many lives and made so many feel special. Darrell's love was unselfish and endless. His adoration for his wife and children was unlimited and tireless. What a special person. We have truly lost an angel and now have a void that will never be filled. My heart goes out to Darrell's wife, Jenny, and all their children. If you keep him in your hearts, he will always be with you. My love and prayers are with you and you family.



Move,

The fondest memories I have of Darrell are those of him entertaining at home with family and friends. Him having that big ole grin on his face while he barbequed. God how he loved his tri-tip. There were times when I marveled at how well he managed the kids while being "Mr. Mom" as well. Its quite sad when the saying comes true that "the good die young".

I will remember Darrell as the fun, quick witted and good hearted person that he was. My friendship with him extends back 10 years and I value the memories of his kindness. My prayers are with his wife and children. He has gone to get his wings but his spirit will guide and keep you safe.



God's blessings,

Words cannot describe my love and respect for my lost best friend, Darrell Danley. Darrell and I have been the best of frineds for as long as I can remember. His abrupt departure from my life has left a void that will not and cannot be replaced. Darrell was a man that loved his family dearly. His family was always his number one priority and he always worked tirelessly to ensure their well being. As my best friend, Darrell was always loyal and true. Darrell could be counted on for anything. He would give the shirt off his back if that's what it took to make someone happy. As I struggle to continue I recall our high school days, our twenties, and our years as fathers. All of these times reflect the best days of my life. A piece of me has departed with you. I will miss you always and will continue to think about you and cherish our memories until my dying day. I love you and miss you dearly. Goodbye my frined.



Love,

Rick

For the little time I knew Darrell it felt like I've known him all my life. He always knew how to make you laugh, especially when you were feeling down. He will be greatly missed by me and everyone that had the priviledge of knowing him.

I've only known Darrell a short time but in the time I knew him, he was a lot of fun to hang with. I have a lot of respect for him and to be so young, he has a great wife and wonderful children.

I AM SAD TO HEAR THAT DARRELL HAS LEFT YOU ALL SO SOON. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER DARRELL AS THE WACKY, CRAZY, FUN GUY THAT I SPENT SO MUCH TIME WITH IN HIGH SCHOOL. HE WAS A GOOD FRIEND TO ME AND I ENJOYED RUNNING INTO HIM FROM TIME TO TIME SINCE THOSE WILD DAYS. DARRELL ALWAYS MADE ME LAUGH, ROLL MY EYES IN DISBELIEF, OR BOTH!

GOD BLESS,
