RIP Darryl

Darryl was a true star in the hobby. A talented guy who not afraid to share his knowledge. Always upbeat even when times were tough. He will be missed at the "events" . Luckily he had his affairs in order and his business will continue. The best story he told me was his story at Marital harmony. Since he worked from home he had a separate shop and he would go home for lunch and his wife would ask him to do something or ask a non related question to the direction his mind was going in. So when he was done for the day, he would walk in the door at home and "High dear I'm home now " and then she could hand him his "Honey do " list . Our hobby is filled with personalities ,some we like more than others and Darryl was one of those guys . I personally will miss Darryl .
