I worked for Aunt Darlene & Uncle Jack the middle of my Junior Year at Grand Junction High (Jan-1974) thru graduation in 1975. We had moved from east Denver.  They let me keep one of the Air Freight Delivery vans full time which allowed me to attend GJHS, otherwise I would have gone to Fruita Monument since we lived on the Redlands.   My mother Ruth was the oldest of 6 & Aunt Darlene was the 4th.  She will be missed.

Oh Granny I love you so much!  I bet Grandpa is giving you the biggest hugs and kisses right now.  Even though you were my grandparents, you two are the ones that raised me.  I always have and will continue to live by those things you taught me.  This hurts so bad Granny and I'm already missing you. I love you Granny, goodnight...

Darlene and her husband were well known and  liked and respected for so many years as they transported mail for the Post Office.  They were so faithfully consistent in their work and in their pleasant attitude towards those of us who saw and visited with them over the years.  May she rest after a life well-lived.
