I am so sorry to hear that Darren has left us! Darren was a genuine and kind individual who would have given you “ the shirt off his back” if he thought you needed it more that he did. He was a genuinely nice guy. He fiercely loved his family, his children and grandchildren and of course his fur babies. May you be at peace, and your soul fly high Darren And rejoice in the fact that you will be with your beloved Dania once again. Love always x Elizabeth Christchurch x

Our love and thoughts go with you all today as you say farewell to a very special person who is dearly loved. Memories will sustain you and your love for one another. God Bless you.

We were so sorry to hear your sad news, Tamara and Brandon, but hold on to the thought that Mum and Dad are now at peace together. Sending our Love and thoughts to you all. xxx "God looked around his garden and found an empty space. He looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face. He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on earth again. He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest, God's garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best" Rest easy Darren
