I have many memories of my Uncle Darrell. As a young city boy from Colorado Springs, I got to stay my Aunt and Uncle for a couple weeks in the summer and learn all about a farmer's life. I have lots of respect for how Uncle Darrell got up so early every single morning, rain, shine, snow or wind and began his long day as a faithful servant to his family. I can remember the smell of Marlboro cigarettes long ago and how he always drank iced tea. I remember him always wearing a baseball cap. I remember him smiling and laughing at us city folk who had a lot to learn. I can also remember the many times we'd go pheasant hunting and how fun it was to hang on for dear life when he was driving as we chased down a coyote! I have many more wonderful memories of my time spent with you Uncle Darrell. A heart-felt thanks for all those memories. May heaven have a nice cap, cold iced tea, a few coyotes, and a nice powerful truck waiting for you! --Mark Miller
