To Jacque, Rich, Mary, Matthew and the family —
Our prayers are with you all. I will miss Darryl’s thoughtful phone conversations. He remembered our friendship over all the years. He loved and followed Jesus, and his future is truly one of joy. It hurts, though, to know that he is gone from this life. I am thankful for his laugh, his concern, his memory of good times, and his love for our family. Godspeed, Darryl!
