Dear Lois, Brian, Linda and family: Always respected Daryl's appreciation of Rock and Roll music back in the early 1970's at the loft in the old Elmwood area house. It certainly helped me aspire to the West Coast Jazz scene later in life and had many a fond memory of "just listening" at the house. Your boys will certainly carry on the drum beat. Rest in Peace. - Posted by: Ron Fernstrom (early friend of Daryl's brother Brian in the 1970's) on: Nov 01, 2013
