Darrell loved watching western movies, old TV shows and sports. He was an avid golfer and he and Anne made many wonderful friendships through this activity. They also enjoyed going to the casino with friends.

More than anything, Darrell loved his family. He loved to take them fishing, had the patience to teach grandchildren to drive and loved taking Nick golfing. Any day spent with his children and grandchildren was a great day.

A Mass of Christian Burial was held Monday, June 18, 2012 at 10:000 a.m. at St. Michaels Catholic Church in Kahoka, MO with Father Paul M. Hartley, officiant. Burial was in Kahoka Cemetery.
