Our thoughts and prayers are with you
With deepest sympathy.
Mike,
We were so honored to be friends with your Darla! She has been missed greatly! Maybe the sounds of these chimes can remind us of how beautiful she was inside and out!
You were a wonderful wife, mother, and grandmother. You will be missed by all. Your smile could light up a room. Your sense of humor made everyone smile too. We love you and will miss you.
Dear Mike and Family we were heartbroken to hear of Darlas passing and we are glad we got to meet her at the Cacti Reunion. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Peace to you Brother
Aunt Darla was so much more than an- although she excelled at being a wonderful Aunt. She was my surrogate mother, a surrogate grandmother to my children. She was Godmother to all 3 children, my Matron of Honor as Juan and I wed (Uncle Mike was best man!). She was my friend, my confidant, and the giver of wise advice. She was a kind and generous person- generous in every way but especially with the most precious of commodities- her time. She never, ever uttered the words I am too busy I will miss her for the rest of my life.
Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
Mike and family,
We were so sorry to hear of the loss of Darla.
She was a loving giving soul and had a beautiful singing voice. The voice of and Angel.
God Bless
