Our dearest friend has passed away. Bye Darrel...

[Steve_88]

Darrel....I'm so sorry. I remember very fondly the help and encouragement you gave myself and others so freely. I've been away from pics and this forum since suffering serious heart attack in 2013 at 46 yo. I was fortunate to survive, and often wonder why some and not others are given a second chance. I exchanged many emails and received a lot of help and had some good chats with Darrel over the years.
To Darrel, you are an example of just how caring, giving, compassionate, clever and talented a person at their best can be.

In which cemetery is Darrel resting, does anyone know?

Although I wanted so much, I could not meet him face to face; I would visit the cemetery at least the next time I visit USA.

Sayzer,
I would suggest you send an email or call the folks at melabs.com as I believe he was employed there at the time of his passing.

I've contacted the guys Darrel work with and here is the response.


"I believe his remains were cremated. I don't know where his ashes ended up.

Thank you for the info.
At least we now know that there is no place to visit.

Oh Darrel,

So many years passed. You help me so much those old days when I was learning PICs and your ideas and advises still live in my works helping me and others. So sad you are not with us...

I have moved on to XC compilers but that does not change the fact that PBP and DT combination is what I owe my carrier to....And all the good people here. Thank you all.
