My heart goes out to Darrell’s family and friends.I have known Darrell for a year and a half. He will definitely be missed. Him and I used to talk about Jesus all the time. I took care of Darrell at Agape.. his smile would light up the room. Him and I prayed together so many times for healing. He is set free from his pain and he was very much loved
