    To The Family, Please Accept My Heartfelt Condolences. Truly the loss of a precious loved one is most difficult. Please find comfort in the promise our most loving Heavenly Father Jehovah God gives us in Revelation 21:4"And He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will no more; neither will mourning; nor outcry; pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." Yes, We can look forward to a time soon to come when all suffering including death will be done away with forever.

    It was truly a pleasure to know Darrell. We met 19 years ago at Whole Foods Market. He became an awesome coworker and friend. His love for what he did and people made him amazing at what he did. Always had a positive vibe about him. Never loud, always soft spoken. Loved his music, sharing his knowledge of healthy living, but most of all I know he loved his family. When we would talk and I ask how everyone is doing, his face would light up extra and the smile became bigger. Never did complete the scrabble game, but we always one the spades game partner. One of my memorable moments that touched not just me but my daughter also. He was always a old school gentleman. Just my kids and I live in Charleston. My daughter's first date and he showed up at the house to talk to the young man that she was going out with. Explained to him how a gentleman should act when courting a young lady. A testament to how caring he was and how it extended to your family not just you. You are resting my friend and you will truly be missed. You hold a special place in my ❤️. Family you all are in my prayers. Thanks for letting us get to know him. May God give you all the strength as you enter a new chapter in life. Let the memories of Darrell stay on in your heart ❤️. Blessings and love Ruth Williams-Gallashaw

    In Loving Memory of Darrell Darrell touched the lives of many in Charleston, SC leaving a lasting impact that will never be forgotten. Fifteen years ago, fate brought us together at Whole Foods, where Darrell's warm and loving welcome set the tone for a beautiful friendship. Darrell's unwavering support for my naturopathic background and meant the world to me, and his trust in my abilities, evident through the referrals he made, was a true testament to his kind and generous spirit. Darrell was more than just a friend; he was a source of inspiration. His radio talent, music choices, and the wisdom he shared about healthy living and life were nothing short of remarkable. His passion health and wellness and for the songs he curated on the airways resonated with all who had the privilege of listening. Darrell's smile was infectious, brightening the lives of everyone he encountered. His face, a reflection of his warmth and compassion, will be dearly missed. As we bid farewell to Darrell, let us remember the joy he brought into our lives, the music he introduced us to, and the kindness he exuded. His memory will live on in our hearts, a reminder of the beauty of human connection and the difference one person can make in the lives of many. Rest in peace, dear friend. You will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and your legacy will continue to inspire us. Tiffany Jackson, ND Former Whole Foods Market Team Member Mount Pleasant, SC
