Darryl Lennell Redmon Sr.

Darryl L. Redmon, age 73, of Raytown, Missouri, passed away peacefully on May 26, 2025, surrounded by his loving family and friends. He was born on August 28, 1951, in Kansas City, Missouri, to Ludy and Maxine Redmon.

A proud graduate of Lincoln High School, Class of 1971, Darryl went on to earn his Commercial Driver’s License and built a dedicated career as a commercial driver, serving a variety of organizations for over 40 years.
