Darrell Antoney McDonald
Sadly passed away at home on the 25th of January 2025, aged 44 years. Hands down the most loving, kind, and joyful husband, Daddy, son and brother, who touched the lives of so many with his positive and brave approach to life. We will all miss him beyond belief, but his legacy will live on through his loving family and many friends. Please feel free to join us to remember him, and celebrate his life.
Darrell wanted people to wear what they feel comfortable in, but as a family, we would encourage you to wear blue, his favourite colour. We are expecting a lot of people to attend so we are requesting you not to bring children please.
We would also love you to send any photos to the fabulous Shaun, who will compile them into a digital montage. Please upload them to: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BwMCel-SpaQmHKkcFo78aVVzAR_SR1o- or send directly to Shaun at shaun.holder@hotmail.co.uk.
Instead of flowers, Darrell requested any kind donations to the charities that have supported him, and our whole family, over his journey, as he called it: Sarcoma UK, Princess Alice Hospice, The Royal Marsden and The Ruth Strauss Foundation. Please use this link, which will divide all funds between the charities: https://www.givewheel.com/fundraising/6320/in-memory-of-darrell-mcdonald/. Thank you so much.
