It was Darrell’s wish not have a memorial service. In the summer of 2015, family and friends will gather to have a golf memorial in his honor. At that time, memorials may be given to the Hay Springs Golf Course.
Serenity Springs Funeral Chapel of Rapid City is hosting Darrell’s online guest register at www.serenityspringsfuneralchapel.com
