Darrell was born on January 17, 1960 in Three Hills, Alberta to Arnold and Elda Boese. In Three Hills Darrell grew up with his 3 brothers, took all of his schooling, created life-long friendships and first met his wife, Sharon Bergos. Darrell had an enormous love for people, young and old and had developed many friendships over the years through his work in the financing industry and eventually with his employment at the Drumheller Institution, which brought him great pride. Even though Darrell was ill for some time, it did not prevent him from continuing to do what he loved. He had a great sense of humour and was a very caring and compassionate son, brother, uncle, husband, father and loyal friend. Darrell had a passion for buying and selling cars and enjoyed his hobby of collector cars. He never stopped looking for the next great deal. Darrell loved to travel, he and Sharon especially enjoyed their trips to Maui and Las Vegas. One of Darrell’s biggest loves was their home at Pine Lake where he enjoyed to boat, fish, ride his ATV, cruise around on his golf cart and spend endless hours with his lake family. Darrell leaves behind his high school sweetheart and loving wife, Sharon. his brothers; Barry (Sheila) and their sons and family, Chris, Warren, Chad and Jeremy; Brother Darcy (Sharon) and their children Chantalle (Peter) and Kendell (Krista).
