Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. I have so many memories of Darlene that warm my heart! From her laugh to her smile and her great love for life….you have always been my favorite Auntie. Love Dennis, Carman (Rheault) Ostrem & family

  2. I have known Darlene for many years. Though our paths took different ways over the years when we connected we would pick up right where we left off. She was a loyal friend. So happy she had 34 years with her best friend /husband Harry. Praying for all who mourn her loss and that you find some comfort in knowing that she is at peace and no longer in pain.

  3. I was so happy to spend time with you before you left and went to Heaven. Heaven has another angel. I love you little sis.

  4. What a shame to loose Darlene. We had a lot of fun in our younger days before I left for the Twin Cities. Wished I would have kept in touch more but once you leave town, it’s hard to get ahold of everybody you want to see again. Darlene was one of them. Harry took good care of you during your sickness and did a good job of it. Rest in Peace

  5. I was sad to read of her passing, may she rest in peace. Love and prayers to the familes. Bob and Joanne (Rheault) Chevalier

  6. prayers and great sympathy for us left behind. haven’t seen Darlene in a long time . seems as the only time old cousins get together is during times like this.
    prayers all around 🙏..
    Darvin has many good memories.
