You all have my deepest sympathy on your loss of your mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, etc. i remember going to Hy Ho and receiving great service from her always with a smile. God bless you.
I’m so sorry to hear of Darlene’s passing. I worked with her for many years at HyHo. She was the one who would always make my birthday cake. (German Chocolate). She’s flying with the angels ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Chris and I are very sorry to hear of Her passing. We had game night at her son Keith and wife Rite Scharf ‘s house several times. She was quite the competitor. Our condolences goes out to her children and all of her grandchildren/plus. May she rest in Peace. Fly high Darlene
So sorry Kent and family for the loss of you mother. Looks like she had a nice, long life. May she rest in peace and be greeted in heaven by her family and friends. God Zbless!
I’m so sorry for your loss. I grew up seeing Darlene almost everyday at HyHo. She made my daughter a hooded towel for my baby shower gift, and I still think of her when I use it for my son.
