    Gene, I am sorry about losing your brother Darryl. As you probably remember, Darryl was a good friend of my brother Ron. We lost Ron to dementia 6 1/2 years ago. Otherwise, I hope all is well with you.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I used to work at BSDC in the housekeeping for years plus other departments as well. Darryl was awesome. My heart thoughts and prayers to all of you. He is flying with the Angel's now.
  13. Dorothy Skeens
    I have enjoyed your company during my 10 years that I have worked with you here at BSDC. You always had a way to get our attention and what your needs were. Every once in a while you'd "crack a smile" while also being in charge! May you always know that you were loved by so many, go rest high on that mountain Darryl and shine down on us here on earth.....SOAR HIGH!

    I knew Darryl since junior high. He had a brilliant mind and a great personality. He had such a bright future. The world lost a great man . My sympathy to his family for their loss.
  15. Bill Richardson
    Darryl was not only the smartest, but the best in our class of '64. He was always quick to praise you for your accomplishments, whatever they might be. I remember his voice so well, always challenging the math teacher to correct one more formula. We missed you in 1968, now we truly miss you. May God bless your soul.
  16. Charlie lockhart

  18. June Westphal
    Ron and Gene, I am so sorry. Although I hadn't the pleasure of meeting Darrell, Steve talked about all the shenanigans those two pulled. They are now together again probably reeking havoc. RIP Darrell.
