She was born June 24, 1932, in Ontario, California, resided in California until 1991, and then lived in Ashland, Oregon for 30 years. She spent her last two years in Hood River, Oregon. Her positive attitude and active lifestyle served her well into her 90th year.

She was talented and creative, whether designing/sewing costumes for her husband's high school productions, flower arranging, cake decorating, drawing, baking and knitting. A holiday for Darlene was always a cause for celebration. 

 She met her husband Joe as a student while performing in his student teaching production of The Glass Menagerie at Los Angeles City College.

After moving to Oregon, she went on to teach Deep Water Aerobics at the local YMCA for 18 years before retiring in 2020 at age 88. She was president of The Ashland Garden Club, volunteering for city events, local gardens and floral displays for every season. She also continued to volunteer her sewing skills as well as ushering for Oregon Shakespeare Festival, all while enjoying theater productions offered by the city of Ashland. 

 Over the last two years, she lived at Providence Down Manor in Hood River where she enjoyed the camaraderie of the other residents as well as the many excursions and activities offered by both the residence and the community of Hood River.
