She graduated in 1960 from Cuba Central, however, she was a long time resident of the Belmont area. After she and Ralph were married, she was a dedicated farmer's wife, and devoted mother. Once her children had all grown, she worked for Tracie’s in Wellsville, and later for Nicholson's Pharmacy in Belmont. She was a very active member of the United Methodist church in Belmont, so much so that she was even on the board of trustees. Darleene loved being around the farm, mowing the lawn, and tending to her flower garden. Most of all, she loved her family, being a caregiver, and making everyone happy. Her family, and her church, were her life.
She is survived, in addition to her husband Ralph, by: a son, Darin Keesler of New York City; two daughters, Kelly (Todd) Bruhnsen of Webster, and Marcie (Jeff) Goater of Sudbury, MA; five grandchildren, Matthew, Sarah, Emma, Henry, and Jack; a sister, Judy (Neil) Sundal of Franklinville; and several nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents, Darleene was predeceased by her brother Robert Spencer.
