Darlene was the consummate farmer’s wife and a perfect hostess known for feeding all who came to their house. Darlene patiently and lovingly cared for Peter in his later years. She was a hard worker who never complained. Darlene was an avid Hawkeye fan and enjoyed doing puzzles. Her faith was strong and anchored in her Lord and Savior her entire life.
