Later occupations included bus driver, many years as a semi-driver, and then in the rail yards in St. Paul, MN.
Darrell was an avid reader and enjoyed discussing politics. He enjoyed fishing, shooting, watching baseball, and cheering on his favorite sports teams, the Oakland A's and the Oakland Raiders.
He will be remembered for his unique personality. We are grateful to him for bringing his family together during his arduous journey this late summer and early fall.
