They were married in the Salt Lake Temple June 16, 1953 after graduation. They lived in Heber for several years and then they moved to Springville, Utah where they raised their 4 children. Darlene was a loving mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. She loved sports and spent countless hours watching her children and grandchildren play ball. She was their biggest fan never missing a game, a dance or music recital, or any of their other events. Darlene was an avid seamstress making countless quilts and pillowcases for family and friends. She worked at Barbizon and Central Utah Clinic in the billing department. She served in many callings in the church. She especially loved the time she spent in young women. She and Cal moved to St. George in 1994 to retire. Together they enjoyed camping at their cabins in the Uintahs and Star Valley, playing games, traveling, and especially the time they spent with family and friends. Darlene had a wonderful sense of humor and loved to tease. Everyone she met soon became a close friend because of her kind heart and compassion.
