  3. Another Angel has entered the gates of Heaven too soon. I have so many wonderful and happy memories of the long relationship our families have shared. Darlene was like my second Mom and will always be thought of with love and respect. Her family will always be close to my heart. My thoughts and prayers are with all of them at this time.
