Darlene was my first cousin, although I hadn’t seen her in a few years I always ask about her. She was always so good to me anytime I seen her, I loved her. I am praying for all her family, that may have peace and comfort throughout the days they will be facing. -Lisa (Hoskins) Abner
Darlene was my first cousin and I loved her dearly. Some of my best memories were when she would come to Kentucky with her family during the summer to visit. I remember getting to go to visit her in South Holland, IN when I was 16 and it was so much fun. She made my world better by bei g in it! We had a lot of hopes and dreams at that age...our top two were buying a corvette and going to Hawaii. LOL Words can't express how sad I am to hear of her passing. She was definitely one of my favorite people in this world and I will miss her terribly even though we lived miles apart and hadn't seen each other for several years. RIP my friend...until we meet again! Praying for peace and comfort for her family during this difficult time. -Treva Taylor
Sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. You are in our thoughts and prayers, -Dan and Nina Williamson Rogowski
