My heartfelt sympathy in your loss of Darlene. We were in some classes in high school and graduated in 67. We did go out on a few double dates. Darlene was a kind and caring person. I also remember her brother. Rest in peace dear one.

Darlene you are on the other side with Jesus now . We had Great times together . I will never forget the time we had an all girls band together . WE DARE YOU was a great band. We won the battle of the bands at Jolly Joe Trimmer’s after we sat on a rock and you said a prayer . And we worked together at JG Funiture Company and you were putting these metal parts in the machine . All of a sudden the metal parts were shooting out of the machine and we had to duck for cover . Rest in peace my GOOD FRIEND . AND KEEP ROCKING . 🙏🙏🙏
