Nothing can ever take away the beauty I have known. The love remains a part of my life forever. Memories of my Heart! So sorry to all the family wish I could be with you. As a child I idolized Uncle Darrell. He always had a warm smile and twinkling eyes. With the patience to teach me to be a cowgirl. He led my pony while I rode in my 1st show. Yes, I got a red ribbon. Thanks to Him
