Darren's friends

Saturday Darren's friends Mike, Jim, Nikki and Dennis came over to see where Darren is and come over to my house for a visit. We reminised about Darren and some silly stories were told of their childhood. I cooked a tator tot casserol that some like and some don't like but it was a meal Darren's friends remembered. I was able to share some pictures with them and they got to see some of his special things he has saved since they all met. Darren kept everything. Darren was sentimental that way. I was told how no matter what each of them were doing weather bad or good he was always there for themm. Darren had a gigantic heart. Jim took the letters that he wrote to Darren while he was out on the road. Mike told me the black and white hat that Darren wore was his and he gave it to Darren. I have pictures of Jackson (Darren's nephew) wearing that hat. There are several pictures of Darren wearing that hat. They were able to take some t-shirts that they went to concerts with him. I know Darren would have liked them to have for memories. It makes me miss Darren seeing his friends but it also makes me happy to know he had such great friends that will take time out of their busy lives to share time with me. I will always appreciate their kindness,hugs and laughs. When they were young and I would walk in from work they would all scurry out. This time they didn't scurry, they stayed and we ate and laughed and have some cute pictures to remember our time together. Thank you Darren for having such great friends. I miss you and love you,mom
