Dad, I love you with all of my heart.  I can't and wont say goodbye, I'm saying until we are together again!  I miss you so much it hurts.  You are the best man that I will ever know.  Rest in peace.  Angie (Your number 1)

Dad, I loved you then, like the pictures hopefully show. I love you now, and will love you forever! I miss you so much, and will miss you everyday until we meet again. "Skinner"

I miss you already! We were together 43 years and I could not have asked for a better mate. 

You are a great dad and our three girls show that.

If I could do it again, I would in a heartbeat. 

You will always be in our hearts. 

Until we meet again,
Joyce

Sorry for your loss! Praying for your family!

Posted a message earlier, but it didn't show up...could be operator error so here it goes again.  

We are so very happy we met Darrell, Joyce, girls, and the rest of the family at IU Cancer Center last year.  Darrell had a direct, sensible approach to life.  Together we celebrated successes and grieved for one another when bad news came.  

Without a doubt, we knew Darrell loved Joyce and all of his family.

Our greatest joy was when  Darrell accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior.  We know we will see Darrell on "The Other Side" and that gives us great comfort.

UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN DARRELL,
"THE GIRLS"...Shawn and Pat

We are so very happy we met Darrell and family members at IU Cancer Center.  Darrell had a direct, sensible  approach to life.  We celebrated his successes and grieved with him when bad news came. Without a doubt, we knew Darrell loved Joyce and his family. Our greatest joy was when Darrell accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior.  We know we will see him on the "Other Side" one day and that gives us great comfort.  We know Darrell will be missed...we miss him and talk of him often.  Our hearts, love, and prayers go out to Joyce, and all of the family.  We will forever have a special bond with you and we will keep in touch.
UNTILL WE MEET AGAIN,

I grew up with Darrell and Debbie in Kentucky, and the children in our families spent a lot of time together.  He will be greatly missed.  Even though I hadn't seen him in years, just knowing he is gone saddens me.  My thoughts and prayers are with all of the Howard Family.

Darrell was a hell of a man , HUSBAN , great friend . Me , Shellie , Joby and Ethan will really miss you and will see you sometime . We had great times , love ya buddy .

Darrell was a good man. I will miss stopping by his house and him stopping by my house. Over the years Darrell has been like my mentor. I am going to miss our talks and friendship. RIP my friend!

EJ and Norma
