To Kim, Troy, Candice & Sierrah.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time.
Darlene was a kind and fun-loving soul. Her love for her family and friends was non-stop.
I am blessed to have known Darlene. My memories date back to when I babysat for her and Jack and I am happy that my last memory is of Darlene and I enjoying some laughs just three weeks ago.
Rest peacefully now my friend, as you reunite with Jack.

Shocked to hear of Darlene’s passing… it’s been many years since she worked at Meaford nursing home and I really haven’t seen much of her. Just wanted to tell you there were many of us coworkers that thought a lot of Darlene. She was very patient and gentle with our residents. Thinking of her family.

Our sincere condolences to Darlene’s family on her passing. Though we lived in the same neighborhood for years, we became far more acquainted with Jack and Darlene through Cruise Nights and Car Shows, especially in Walters Falls and Bognor were everyone sat together and shared a lot of stories and just enjoying good old fun being together. Family and friends, you are in our thoughts and prayers.
