I met Daryl at his first job...At an ice cream store. I was one year ahead of him in school...I was at Meadowbrook and he was at Manchester. I usually saw him when I came home from Meredith College. Daryl was a joy to be around and a true friend. Could someone please tell me what happened that took him from this world so young. My thoughts and prayers are with his family...May God bless you.
