Darlene was a great friend & will be dearly missed. We loved to play different card games & even got Dea to play not long ago. She leaves lots of good memories. Prayers for all of her family who she was so proud of.
Your mom was the most amazing painter, caring person, and wonderful friend a person could have. She was an exceptional teacher and always made me feel like I was much better than I was. I will miss her terribly. She was so proud of her children and grandchildren, and the in-laws-bragged about them constantly. I know that everyone in the Porcelain Art Club will truly miss her. Please take care of each other. Love all of you
