Sadly missed by wife Sarah and step-daughter Sophie, and his brothers Kenneth Paul, Patrick, and Michael; sisters-in-law Lydia and Kate, nieces Laura, Erica, and Aine, nephews Kenneth & Michael, and extended family and friends.
Darren was a great son, a beloved father, a husband, a caring brother and so much more. He flew to South Boston to start a new life in 1993. He, along with his brother Patrick, encountered some amazing people on their travel from all counties of Ireland, Scotland, and America. Darren was a great father who loved his two sons dearly. They were his life and he was the proudest father. Darren was funny, caring, loyal and a good man. He was the life of the party wherever he went making everyone laugh. Darren was an accomplished basketball player and a minor A footballer who won the championship in 1991 and the U21 A championship in 1992. Darren was a great guy who would do anything for you and will be in and hearts and memories forever.
