I can’t even begin to describe how heartbreaking it is to lose Darin. What I do know for sure is he was such a terrific, happy kid, who grew to be a young man that ANYONE would be proud to call Son, Brother, Husband, Father, Cousin, Nephew, etc. He was truly loved, and he will be missed forever by all who knew him…..
Can’t possible tell you how much he will be missed at family functions. We could always count on Darin to start up a board game marathon or one card game or another. But most of all we will miss his wonderful sense of humor. We have never met a more kind and generous man. Christmas with the Renners will never be the same.
Our heart goes out to you Karin, Calvin, and Darin’s family. He is loved so much by so many. We will miss him more than words can say.
Darin will be greatly missed. You will be in my prayers.
