My deepest sympathy to the Darby Family. Dickie was a good friend and a tough competitor on the baseball field. He was a great example of what a man should be as he coached one of our baseball teams in G.Y.A.A. love you brother. God Bless Your Soul.

To family and friend's, I'm so sorry about the loss of your loved one. Death is not and never was God's purpose for humans. That's why he promises to resurrect all those who have fallen asleep in death. (John 5:28,29) (Acts 24:15) I hope that reading these few scriptures will help you to find some comfort during your time of grief. Sincerely, Tami Ziegler
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

We send our condolence and Gods Blessings to the Family. I worked with Dickie at GM Plant. He was always soft spoken and always had jokes. I enjoyed playing golf with him in the Outer City Golf Club.

Sorry to hear Dickie had passed. Dickie and I went to John Adams high school. Dickie was an all star baseball player and excelled in all sports. Our friendship continued with mutual respect as we worked together at the GM Plant in Parma. May God bless his family, he will be truly missed by all. Lee Cannaday.
