Beautiful Darla, the sun shines a little less bright since you left. I miss you, I love you, and I can't wait for the day that we meet again. Look out for all of us down here.

Beautiful girl, you had a smile that would light up any room you walked into no matter what. You were more loved than you could imagine. We haven't talked in forever but we always had a blast when we were together. Thank you for all the great memories. I wish I could've been at your services. Fly high angel!

Sweet Lil Darla I will miss you shine bright angel.to see your smiling face again

You meant everything to me Darla. I'm just in disbelief that I'll never be able to hug you or see you again. I will always cherish the memories I have of us, and all the times we've been there for eachother. There will never be anyone else like you in this world. I was blessed with 18 years even though I thought we'd have many more :-( I'm going to do my best living my life with you above me instead of beside me. It's going to be extremely hard, but your beautiful smile will always be in my memory and the love we had will remain in my heart. Forever sisters <3 I'll always be thinking of you.

I can't believe you are being laid to rest today. My heart aches on so many levels. Fly high babygirl, we will see each other again soon ❤

Darla was a good person. Michael and I are going to really miss seeing her on Thanksgiving. We are praying for the entire family at this difficult time. We are here for you Donna.

I wasn't super close with you but the times we did hangout you had me smiling the whole time, you are so beautiful and it sucks that we'll never get to hangout again. You will be missed dearly

Rest in peace darla. God has bigger plans for you! I know your our angel smiling down on us. You are loved and missed beyond words!

Jeff I am so so very sorry for your loss. I'm keeping you in my prayers.  May the days that follow get easier.  Sending love your way

It's still hard to believe your life was taken so soon. You are loved and missed by so many and will live on in our hearts. Rest in peace, beautiful.

Sweet Darla. You were the light of some many people's lives. You were so genuine, so real & so down to earth. All the memories I have of you were nothing but positive! Your smile could light up the world. I hope you knew how much I loved you even if we didn't get to talk often. You'll always have a special place in my heart & so many others. I was so very lucky to grow up with you.  I'm sad I couldn't make it to your viewing or funeral but I'm there in spirit. & my mom will be there. You're constantly on my mind. 
 Fly high baby.

Darla was beautiful and full of hope. I did not know her very well but what I did know was that no matter what her struggle she never gave up.

I can still see the smile and triumph on her face the last time I saw her. She was happy so we have to believe that she is in a better place where there is no pain. Rest in Peace young lady, now you can live.

Darla, my little beautiful cupcake. I miss hearing you call me burrito. You spent the last three weeks of your life around me. We had some amazing memories together. I was just getting to know you and I already cared so much about you. Ill never forget how happy you were when Skylar and I brought you soup and a can of Mt. Dew because you were sick and we were worried about you. Or when you went shopping with me and we spent the day together and i dragged you around walmart for an hour looking for clothes. I hold onto all the times you had me on the floor laughing. You beautiful soul I miss you so much. I still hear your voice in my head. I still wake up and hope i find you asleep on the couch. Darla I wish I could have saved you like I wanted babygirl but you live on in my heart and you will forever be my angel in the sky. Watch over all of us as we deal with your loss. I love you baby girl. Please watch over Curtis and Skylar you know they need you. And your brothers and your mom and dad. I'll see you soon love. Shine your light bright sweetheart. I love you.

D. Theil, as you allowed me to call you, you made walking into the classroom and lab worth it. Watching you grow and demonstrate excellent skills acquired and knowledge obtain was a joy and inspired me to be the best instructor I could be on a daily. You have a heart of gold and an infectious smile that always changed the atmosphere in a positive way. I'm extremely proud of you. I Thank God I had an opportunity to walk out this surgical journey with you. With a heavy heart, you are missed so much already, my condolences to all of your loved ones. Rest now Angel

Beautiful Darla, I went to high school with you and we got closer over the past weeks. your smile was so addicting. its so crazy how much things can change. Rest in Peace Darla, keep that smile shining bright down on us. sending my prayers to your family, and friends. 

you will forever be missed<3

Dear Donna and Family:
No one knows why bad things happen to those so innocent and whose life has hardly begun. For now it will have to remain the painful mystery that it is. Losses like this can make us challenge our faith; however, this is precisely the time when our faith needs to be its strongest. I am praying that your faith will help you through this very difficult time. I pray that you will find the strength to get you through your grief and sadness.

 In thinking about your loss, I would like to leave you with the oft quoted words of the poet Ellen Brenneman, We can't know why the lily has so brief a time to bloom in the warmth of sunlight's kiss upon its face before it folds into its fragrance and bids the world good night to rest its beauty in a gentler place. But we can know that nothing that is loved is ever lost and no one who has touched a heart can really pass away because some beauty lingers on in each memory of which they've been a part.

With our deepest sympathies, 
Susan Hartley-Hooper and Family

Beautiful girl, I wish you were here and could see how much you are loved, how much you impacted the people you knew, and how much you mean to your family and friends. I know you are at peace and that your heart is free of pain. This isn't goodbye, this is "Until we see each other again."

My dearest Darla, I watched you grow up with my girls...you were always a bright ...although timid, shining star...may you REST IN PEACE and know you will akways hold a special place in my  Gods Peace to the family...especially my NICK....SHE IS OUR ANGEL NOW AND I KNOW HALEY MET HER AT THE GATES!!

Rest in paradise Darla. My heart and prayers go out to the family. I didn't know her very well. Only shared a couple hello's. But I consider her brother Chris as a best friend and brother. I know how much he loves her. Wish I could've had a chance to get to know her. Stay strong and keep your head up for your darling angel. Much love to all.

For twenty years we have watched you go from a cute little freckle faced girl to a strong beautiful young lady. It's heart breaking to lose you so soon. At least I know that God has you wrapped in his love and you are at peace with him. I pray for the family left behind to find the same peace although I know it 
will take time. You will be missed and you were so loved. God bless you.
Aunt Linda and Uncle Herb

No words can express My heart & prayers are with you all truly truly sorry.

I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know Darla but I have know your son Nick for many years. I just want your family to know you are in my prayers. Leah McCoy (Tom's mom)

Dearest Darla, I regret that you likely never knew the joy you brought to me and my home. Movie night was an awesome treat that I would have loved to have repeated over and over.  Your exuberance was life giving to me during some of my loneliest moments. You gave so much more than you knew. This loss of you is beyond measure. My chest is a heavy void and my head is a mass of disbelief, anger, and confusion. My prayers go out to all of us who are suffering this emptiness, and I ask that you come to each of us and bring that comfort that only you, through God, can bring. Thank you, for sharing your time with me. Soar the universe, and spread your light.

Baby Girl you will be missed.  You were a beautiful young lady and held a very special place in mine and my families heart.  May God give your family peace.  R.I.P. Darla.  The Triliegi's
