My deepest sympathy to Darcy’s boys and extended family. I have known Darcy for many years and he treasured his boys very much. They were his life and he constantly talked about them, and how proud he was of them. I believe they each have a very special angel watching over them. He will always be remembered for his friendly conversations. He was a good man.
“God didn’t promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but he did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way.”
My sympathies to Darcy’s family. He and I went to MHHS together. He was a valued professional and apparently an invaluable dad. So sorry that his family has had this tragedy. Remember the good times.
Our most heartfelt condolences for your loss. God promises everlasting life (John 3:16)..a time when we will never have to be separated from those we love.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dawn.
