Condolences
To John and Family: I offer
To John and Family: I offer my thoughts and prayers at your time of loss. Darlene was a lot of fun and tried to enjoy life to the fullest extent she could - especially towards the end of her life. I'll always remember the times we shared - both at work at CDC and on our many "outings" away from the school setting. She will be missed. If there is anything I can do, please do not hesitate to contact me!
Passing of my niece Darlene
My wife, Geri, and I feel the sad loss of this lovely lady who was so much joy to be around. Yet ours is, we're sure, meager in comparison to that which is felt by her husband John, her daughters Rochelle and Sharon, son Dane, and all the grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchild. Our thoughts, prayers, and well wishes are with all of you, as you share the love which she provided all of us who knew her and loved her. May God bless.

Loved Ones of Darlene:
We are so saddened by the tremendous loss of your beloved wife, mother, friend and relative, my niece by marriage. It is an undeniable fact that she loved her husband and she, indisputably, loved, nurtured and was always there, for her children. I pray that the day will come in which thoughts of her will bring only loving memories, laughter and joy, that the pain experienced now will dissolve into only those wonderful, happy memories that you hold dear and near to your hearts, as we do. Warm hugs, Geri Garnett
