     He enjoyed hunting, fishing, reading and anything sports related. Darrel was a firm believer in conspiracy theories and would share his political views nightly with Rachel Maddow on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show”. In lieu of flowers, in the words of Darrel “Vote for a Democrat”. He believed in decent humanity, supporting whatever your views were as long as you stood strongly behind them, and could make conversation with complete strangers for hours.

     In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by a brother, Clyde C. “Bud” Rogers and his sisters, Janet E. Wolf and Marjorie L. Withers.
