We worked so hard...raising our kids and building our dreams. I will love you forever ~ K

Yes and this one too heart heart heart, when asked one of her favorite memories she says, " I'll always remember eating frosted flakes out of the same bowl with Granddaddy in his favorite chair, he knew I didn't like the bananas so he would fish them out and eat them himself "❤️🤠🐎 

Granddaughter

Oh my gosh, how we love our grandchildren.  When asked one of his favorite memories of his granddaddy this little man says, " I love playing in dinosaur matching game with granddaddy, every time I beat him he would look at me in the sea how did you do that?"

I miss our movie dates. So many movies over the years! I miss the birthday song voicemails, I lost the last one with my old phone. I miss hearing all about why you love your horse more than you did yesterday. I miss seeing you play with my children and hearing them call you granddaddy. I miss bouncing crazy ideas past you to see if you thought they sounded as nuts as Dustin thought they did. Most of all, Dad, I miss you.  Rachel

Jim and Stephanie Markovich thank you for this! Oreo love!

Dear Friends - I have Derrell's urn home with me for a few short days until Tuesday.  He will be buried at the VA Cemetery 7/23/24 with an United States Air Force Military Honors funeral service, it will be a brief ceremony, 30 minutes, following with gravesite service about 5 minutes ending with a prayer.  

Representatives of the US Air Force will fold his flag and Fred has arranged a military gun salute by Vietnam Era Veterans. I will bring the ceremony gifted US flag in honor of Derrell's service home with me.  

Afterwards those who like, may join myself, Kerii and my boys & family at Pacific Diner in Henderson.  Lunch options will be at guests' own expense.

Thank you dear friends and family for all your support and love for Derrell and I.

I ❤️ Derrell,

Kathy

This man love this horse. Derrell and Huck happily roamed Southern Nevada's desert and sand dunes in Sandy Valley. They were quite the team.

Thank you Dr Rochen for honoring Daryl's name through your donation to this Foundation https://aaep.org/

Derrell was always the go-to man when the vets came to visit. He had a way of calming all of our horses and removing their fears and nerves when the vets came to call.

The Facebook postings by Kathy & maybe by Darrel were wonderful over these years. Each picture showed activity in his life especially with a horse .  The dinner gatherings with family for special occasions showed the love being shared. 
Let Darrel always be remembered as he is in each one’s heart...  Always Remember!

I’m so sorry, Kathy. Love and hugs from Joe and me.

Such a beautiful soul I'm so sorry for this loss kathy. I hope you're doing okay and if you ever need help with anything please ask me anytime I will love to help with anything.

He was always so nice asking me if I need anything while I was in the back and just asked me about my day a couple times and ask if he could help. Such a beautiful person has left us with only kind memories
