Darrell Watts died yesterday morning at his home. He had been fighting his illness for some time and his wife, Lois, was with him at the end.
A private service for family has been scheduled for Dr. Watts at Wyuka Funeral Home, and a celebration of life service will be held at a later date. Please keep Darrell’s family in your thoughts and prayers.
Darrell was a long time faculty member in BSE who retired in 2001. For those who may not have known Darrell well, the editorial he wrote in the LJS in 2009 is a good example of his heart. http://journalstar.com/news/opinion/local-view-community-based-programs-have-merit/article_71807097-398c-5ca4-8a1e-a32527fc7c6f.html
