Darren was taken from us far too soon, and his memory will be forever cherished by those who knew and loved him.

Over the years, he formed countless friendships, as customers quickly became friends. Darren had a gift for connecting with people, and his kindness left a lasting impression on everyone who walked through the bookstore doors.
Darren had a true love for gardening and took great pride in what he grew. He loved to cook as much as he loved to garden. Darren's kitchen was often alive with music playing as he experimented with yet another creation. Sharing his creations with family, friends, and neighbors brought Darren immense joy.
Darren's deep love for all animals, especially cats, showed in his care and compassion from building shelters and rescuing strays, always ensured they were cared for and safe.
Known for his gentle spirit and warm heart, Darren was kind to everyone he encountered. He was a devoted and loving father, a truly loyal friend, and someone you could always count on.
