Condolences
Aunt Kay
Such a short time to be blessed with such a great woman. Aunt Kay was always so happy and she will be missed by so many.
Daughter, Sister and Aunt....
The Darnell family lost a daughter, a sister, an aunt and a good friend on Sunday morning. A small sigh and a slight squeeze of her hand comforted my mother and I as we laid beside her and she quietly left this earth. Her suffering was finally over and this strong woman that once was could move on to place we all hope to see one day. There are no words that can say how much we loved her and how greatly she will be missed. I was truly blessed to have such a wonderful aunt that helped raise me and loved me like I was her own. For the four women that remain (Mom, Nanny, Kip and Kit) thank you for being such positive influences in my life and Aunt Kay….. you will never be forgotten.
