That is very sad news. My husband just passed and they worked together. Extremely well mannered and friendly.  We went to grade school together. It was hard times back then downtown in that area. But I'll always remember him with that big smile and happy ways.  We used to pick on people alot we had problems but never him.  He was just the cutest and everyone knew he was untouchable and that he was going to somebody.  But he wasn't trying to be like us and we didn't want him to be.  We wanted him to stay chill just like he always was.  Anything I can do to help just give a holler.  15 years later but I'm barely finding out.  He went way too soon.  With such a good heart, can't even say that about most these days.

Darren, u will be truly missed but never forgotten, my prayers are with you and your loved ones. You are with The Lord now. RIP

Darren may you rest until the day of judgement when ur name will be called u where a great friend in Jr high and high school. My prayers go out to your children and rest of your family rest now

My deepest condolences to Darren's family and lifelong friends. Darren we met just a couple of times but during those moments it became clear to me why so many people speak so highly of you with fond memories.

McMitch, I don't know what to say or how to start.  I just want to say that I love you and miss you.  It breaks my heart for your Mom, Katrina and the boys that you are gone.   I also feel for Kev because I know his life will not be the same without you in it.  But, as we know you would look after his boys, we will look after yours.  Love you much......

Gone to soon, have a peaceful journey my friend.  Prayers going up for the Mitchell family, may you also find peace.

Stephanie,
I remember many happy Thanksgiving dinners with you and the kids when Darren was "just little." The times we went to the park and Savers. I am so upset it is hard to find words.  Darren was a wonderful person.  Love to you, Randy and Selena.

Our deepest condolence go out to Katrina for this unexpected loss to her sons and to her family we all will never be able to get over this loss Darren was a provider husband, father, and a great inspiration to whom ever he touched he has taught a. Whole lotta people how God really expects his children to be this also includes all adults because we're all Gods children maybe this is why God reached down and said Darren you've done what I asked all my children to do manny listen and but some don't so I need you back with my angels Darren you will be missed but you will never be forgotten we loved you it's just ashame we didn't spend more time with you! God bless you!! And until we meet again may you rest in peace!

 Love Nay&Nora. Nathan&jovanna

Our heartfelt condolences are with you and your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Darren was a good man and friend and will truly be missed, From Carlos Lugo and Family.

Our prayers and thoughts go out to the family..you were a great dad and husband to our cousin Katrina. Now you and Aunt Alice can watch over us ALL!

My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. I knew Darren only as Mr. Mitchell. I did not put it together until this week (thanks to FB) that he was  Darren Mitchell, someone I went to high school with, as well as, Donovan's dad. I was lucky to have had Donovan in my kindergarten class. Donovan made such an impact on me that he will forever be in my heart so I wanted to let him know that I am thinking of him and his entire family during this difficult time. Donovan, please visit me sometime at Linda Vista Elementary. I would LOVE to see you! With caring thoughts,
Kristin Hagstrom (Miss Weinbrock)

My heart God was heavy when I heard the news but I am convinced that God knows best, to be absent from the body is to present with the Lord. I will recall every laugh, upset and bad call on the court with our boys. You trusted me enough to take your own with us for the basketabll tournament and we returned safely LOL You will be truly missed my frined...

I am at a loss for what to say to you Darren. You were more then a big brother, you were like a father to me...I will always look up to you, and now do literally look up to you and we all rejoice in you. I hope you know how many lives you touched...may you sit with God and his son Jesus...I will see you again Darren.

Very sorry to hear about your loss, Its been to long since we said "Hey". Give my love to your kids and Please be strong!

Words can't describe the emotions felt by all who knew and loved Darren. I just wanted to share with you all, the impact that Darren's friendship had on my life. When I was going through the most difficult time of my life, Darren helped me out of deep depression. His encouragment and love for life was contagious, and my memories are filled with the great times we shared together. My continued thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Darren we can't believe that you're gone!!!  

We will always remember your beautiful yet slightly mischievous smile, your passion for life and friends and especially your love and devotion to your family.  You always had fire and excitement in your eyes when you spoke, a rare quality in people today.  We were blessed to know you and will NEVER forget you!!!  

To the Mitchell family: you are in our thoughts and prayers.  Jr., Donovan and Devon – your father loved you and it was ALWAYS a pleasure watching him watch you, taking pride in his Mitchell boys!  Now he is with our Heavenly Father and it's comforting to know that we will see him again. I bet Darren will be the first to greet us when we arrive to Heaven with that beautiful yet slightly mischievous smile of his.

We Love You D!
The Robertson Family

Darren, I will miss our mother/son talks... but will remember all said. LOVE YOU ALWAYS... your mother-in-law,(DEBRA)you use to like to call me by my birth name to make a point...Rest now You are in my heart along side of my mother and I know you both are looking down on your families everywhere sending love.
