I worked with Darlene in the banking industry for many years. She was a sweet and caring person and will be greatly missed. My prayers go out to Andy and her entire family.
I wish to extend my sympathy to Darlene’s family . She was a very lovely lady. I joined her Bunco group about 2 years ago & so enjoyed getting to know her. It was fun to hear her talk of her family & friends. I loved her beautiful smile & laughter! Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with her family & friends.
I worked with Darlene in banking years ago. We coached girls softball together. She was fun to be with and I enjoyed her friendship. Thanks to she and Andy for my first date with my husband of 33 years.
I worked with Darlene for many years in banking and we became friends. She and Andy let me keep my horse, Sugar at their farm and we had many good times on rides to the creek and around their farm. She was so much fun and we had many laughs while on rides near the pig farm which the horses hated. I know she will be missed by many. I send prayers to her family and to Andy.
Please accept condolences from the “Lee” family. We have known the Pruitts for years. God bless you during this time. Tom & Barbara (Lee) Preston
