Darren, you were such a lovely boss to us, always looking out for us, checking in and supporting us through absolutely everything, both personally and professionally. One thing I absolutely do know was how much you adored your family, and they you. I used to love hearing about your ventures around Woodley with Claire, James, Josh and Bella. Woodley was my stomping ground growing up too so it was so nice to hear your similar experiences! I have learnt from you that family always comes first, no matter what. You reminded me of this when I needed to hear it the most, so thank you. I'm sharing a picture of a happy memory at Richmond Tea Rooms. You were the first to admit that you were totally out of your comfort zone, sipping on prosecco and eating posh cakes! You were always making us laugh! I'm sending all my love and deepest condolences to Claire, James and Josh. I'm so very sorry. Darren was one in a million and he will be so greatly missed by us all. Love from Emma xx
