Darrell enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. He loved to travel, especially with his wife to Las Vegas. He liked playing cards and camping with his family. He also looked forward to the “cheap movie day” every Tuesday. Wednesdays were his gambling day.

 

His passion was golf; he golfed on three different leagues for many years. He loved to watch sports on TV, with golf and football being some of his favorites. He was a big Green Bay Packers fan. Darrell had an infectious laugh that will be greatly missed.
