    With heart felt condolences it was a blow to our mind hearing of Darren passing as I could imagine it was harder as you guys went thru lost first hand. Darren was an amazing man. He was kind with a side order of humour. He will be missed by many but never forgotten by no one. Wear your wings well bud your an angel watching over.
