Darryl was an avid antique glass hunter with a collection of over 2,000 bottles and relics. Darryl was a skilled carpenter and could fix anything with anything.  Darryl enjoyed the simple things and simple life. He was a kind calm soul and always looked for the best in people. He took care of people and pets with love and kindness, especially his constant companion, Doobie, his dog. He will be missed by his family and all who knew him.
