Heard about Darren's passing from Mike "Big Willie" Williams. Darren and I were friends attending school together at Sumner School in Austin. He was a special person. The last time we spoke, I believe, was at our 2007 class reunion. After high school, I fox hunted with Larry and he kept me informed of Darren. I'm sorry for your loss but am grateful for all the years you spent together. May God Bless

Marna, I have such great memories of our boating days at SVL with you and Darren. He always had a smile on his face, and always so friendly. Sending much love to you and your family.

Marna, Steve and I are so very sorry for your loss. Steve spoke many times about how gracious you and Darren were when he went fishing with Darren. Steve loved fishing for Walleye; he caught two that day. Darren cleaned them for Steve and we 100% enjoyed them later. Darren was a good hard working gracious man, had a smile you never forgot, and even though we didn't see you all much, when we did you both were friendly. Prayers to you and your family. God Bless Steve & Debbie Critz
