Whether it was a simple shopping trip to the grocery store or a day at the nail salon, she enjoyed spending time with her older sister, mom, and grandmother. She could often be found watching television with her grandfather or spending time with her uncle, with whom she shared a birthday. Due to her armed forces duties, her aunt would come to visit for short intervals at a time, but when she did, Darlie would light up with happiness and spend as much time with her as she could.
Her energy and beautiful smile could bring instant joy to anyone, no matter their situation. She had recently finished 3rd grade and was looking forward to starting summer school before going to the 4th grade in the fall. Her loss was a massive shock to our family. We continue to grieve our loss. We are asking for donations to help cover the cost of Darlie’s funeral as we are still trying to get back on our feet financially due to the pandemic. Any amount you can donate will genuinely be helpful and much appreciated. Any extra funds leftover will be donated to the Animal Humane Society as Darlie was a massive lover of animals.
