Her father's military service stationed the family in various places including Frankfurt, Germany where she graduated from Frankfurt High School. Daryl landed in San Angelo when her father retired from the USAF. Her first job was at K-Mart working in the camera department. There she developed a love of photography resulting in her becoming our family photographer. She took many great pictures that will provide a lifetime of memories. Daryl then became employed at Johnson and Johnson's Ethicon working there for 33 years until she happily retired. Daryl was known for her thoughtfulness, selflessness, kindness, meekness and for being very humble. She was a peacemaker, encouraging and loving. She loved her whole family with all of her heart. Daryl enjoyed spending time and playing with her grandchildren and attending their sporting events. She loved family events and traveling, usually to visit family. She was innately helpful and sacrificially put others needs before her own. Daryl routinely watched various Christian broadcasts and videos. She attended Paul Ann Church or watched online services. As Daryl's faith grew it became her joy to share God's word with her family. Daryl is now free of the stress, strife, and trials of her earthly journey. She is now enjoying complete peace and agape love we can only imagine. She was deeply loved by all her family. Although she will be missed tremendously; there is endless comfort for her family in knowing she was saved. We have faith one day we will see her again. Daryl loved Jesus and He shined through her to all who knew her. Daryl regularly supported Feed the Children and Meals for the Elderly. In her memory, please consider a donation to one of these worthy charities. Your memory will forever live in our hearts. Your family loves you most. Until we meet again...
