I truly believe that Darlene was one of the kindest & most humble people in the world! It was always a special moment when we would bump into each other and "catch up". Heaven gained a very special lady. My sympathies to her family. 💓 Treasure those wonderful memories of Beef Strogenoff!

To all Darlene's family,
Our hearts are sad and heavy at your Mom's passing. Such an angel here on earth. She had the gift of making everyone feel at home and each one of us special. I'm sure she's already planning to feed everyone who's been waiting on her followed by a good game of pinochle 😁 Know we would be there if time allowed and you're all in our thoughts and prayers. Much love, Paul, Nancy and family

Heaven most certainly gained one beautiful angel. Your Mom was one of the finest ladies I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. What an honor it was to know her, and especially grow up up around. Bobby, Diane, Debbie, and Brad.........your Mom was treasured by so many, and touched so many lives. Thank you for sharing her with us ❤️

Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Mom so enjoyed talking to Darlene every day and was always eager to share the latest news or family events. Darlene was interested in what everyone was doing, especially when Mom's two grandsons were going to Virginia Tech and Diane lives in Virginia. It was almost like they were suppose to see each other! I have fond childhood memories of all of the things we did together and many happy times our families shared. I tell my husband Curt often that Mom's friend Darlene is on the farm where Don Aandahl and Dave Haberman rode horse because of course there has to be a UND connection too. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I can only imagine the heavenly homecoming Darlene will have!!! Here is a piem entitled "Homecoming"
Death is God carrying us in one arm while the other flings aside heaven's door, to welcome us back to the blazing hearth of our first home.
While those inside, having arrived before us, rush to the door like glad children shouting, They're here! They're here!
Death has a bad name on earth, but in heaven, it's a homecoming party every time the door opens.
God does not forget those earthbound children, sad and left behind.
God leaves the party early to enter into their despair and to get them ready for their own parties someday.
