In their joint obituary, Johnny was described by his family as a man who “loved coaching youth sports, playing music and building the family tree.” Darlene loved “crafting, listening to music, and playing cards.

The 67-year-old husband and 65-year-old wife both “enjoyed fishing and spending quality time with family and friends.”

They are survived by their 3 children, 9 grandchildren, as well as their precious poodles, Macy and Sammy.

“The lives of Mom and Dad were stolen by a virus that many joke about on a daily basis or just straight out believe it’s a hoax of some sort,” Shane wrote in a Facebook tribute to his parents. “Both of them took this pandemic seriously and still got sick, still died,” he continued. “My parents weren’t just a blessing for me, my brother, my sister, our spouses, and our children. They were a blessing to every person that met them.”

Shane emphasized that they both “loved their family very much and did anything and everything they could possibly do for them,”

“I had some pretty darn awesome parents,” doted the proud son.

He also pleaded with people to take the necessary precautions surrounding COVID, including washing your hands and social distancing.

“Hold your family close,” Shane added. “Treat every moment with them like it’s your last, it could very well be. Love and keep on loving.”
