    To the family of Darrell Mullins,
    As the former president of the Foster Grandparent Program Foundation, it is with heartfelt sympathy that I send this tribute to Darell for his service to the children at Cameron and Lemmer schools. I well remember his wife Virginia as she was a Cameron Foster Grandparent with him. Both were involved with our annual fundraiser. Cherish your memories and may you have a special funeral service this coming week.

    We had many nice conversations while drinking coffee and making copies at Cameron School. Darrell and his loving wife, Virginia,, were an integral part of many school children’s and teachers lives. They affectionately referred to me as “princess”. I enjoyed working along side of them at school. I send prayers to his family. Patti Hager
