Darlene loved to go camping and spending time with family and friends. She loved to sew and specialized in Brazilian Embroidery. She loved tending to her garden, her raspberry bushes, and her flower gardens.

Mom loved having many family get togethers. Her claim to fame and enjoyment was cooking for her family and friends. No one ever went hungry. We will miss these special times with her.

She loved her dogs and grand dogs. She took care of them whenever she was asked.
