Funeral Director
In loving memory of Darren Keith Russell who sadly passed away on 29th December 2022 after a short battle with prostate cancer.
Dar was well known through his varied careers as a mechanic, RAF dog handler, police officer and security controller.
We would love family, friends and colleagues to share some memories and/or photos of Darren that we can use as part of his funeral service.
All are welcome at the funeral and wake on Monday 16 January (full details above), but it would be really helpful if you let us know if you are planning to attend below.
Please can we request that flowers are restricted to family only and if anyone would like to make a donation to charity instead, they choose from the options above.

![In loving memory of two fantastic days fishing with Darren near his home last July. Darren on his trusty luncheon meat and me on the bread hauling in the carp. We had plans to fish the Broads for bream in August and the Great Ouse too. Sadly, that was not to be.
Darren was a wonderful nephew and a great companion, a gentle giant. Wherever you are Darren, tight lines.](https://d24pb0tc2lc7uj.cloudfront.net/2_JtCka3-His3BWvIHekjxlNDwY=/fit-in/800x600/public/assets/uploads/d67faba4-c274-4ab1-a924-223f39ac88ee.jpg)
