DEBORAH L. "DEB" DETRENT

Deb died peacefully in her home on March 22, 2008, surrounded by the love and support of her family. We find comfort in knowing she will be reunited with her father and will once again be healthy and pain-free. Deb's life cannot be measured by the amount of years she lived, but instead, the amount of memories she helped to create. She spent her whole life making sure her family and friends were happy and well taken care of. She will live on through every person she touched. Admirably, Deb was a woman who believed in hard work. After graduating from West High in 1979, she enrolled in cosmetology school. She did hair for several years, but decided to leave the business and simply cut hair on the side. Deb devoted the past 10 years putting her heart and soul into her new careers. As a loyal employee of Hy-Vee, she loved to ice doughnuts and chat with the regulars. Deb also worked at Buchanan Elementary where she supported the learning of the young children as a para-educator. She loved her work, and she loved those with which she worked. Aside from her work, Deb emmersed herself in the love of her family. She grew up closest to her sister, Kathy, and her sister's husband, Tom. They were best of friends who laughed together and cried together. Every experience Deb had in her life was shared with her sister. The biggest endeavor they shared was the raising of their children. Deb welcomed her first daughter, Julie, into the world on Feb. 19, 1982. Over the years, they became inseparable. Deb inspired Julie to become a teacher and supported her through the journey of marriage and motherhood. Deb welcomed her two grandbabies into the world, Shane, on March 31, 2005, and Cody, on July 20, 2006. They soon became her pride and Joy. Deb welcomed her second daughter, Mollie, into the world on May 1, 1991. As Mollie grew, so did their relationship. Deb was so proud to have such a beautiful and talanted daughter. We all know she will be supporting Mollie as she enters adulthood and experiences the endless milestones of her life.

Thank you so much for the added tribute for Susan.  Many of us have often wondered when she passed.

DARRELL EUGENE FOSTER

Darrell died from complications of AIDS, though his family preferred to say his "official" cause of death was cancer (he had developed Kaposi's Sarcoma and was undergoing chemotherapy for it). 
I was a member of the QC AIDS Coalition, which was the predecessor to the current AIDS Project Quad Cities (which I'm a member of now).  I went to support groups with Darrell, and after he passed some of the group who knew him best got together & made a very simple NAMES quilt panel (he said he didn't want anything "flashy" when he was gone). If you go to aidsquilt.org and look for block #2739, it is pictured there, along with some others we did for members of the group who also had passed.

Darrell's Panel
I had lost touch with Darrell for several years, but bumped into a mutual friend who informed me Darrell was ill. I thank God that I was able to be with him for a few months before he passed. Back in those days, AIDS was still a horribly feared disease...I remember the first time I walked into his hospital room at Genesis East & gave him a hug, he cried. He said that not many people wanted to touch him, they were afraid they might catch it.  He maintained a fantastic sense of humor to the end, with his nickname for me being "Giraffe" b/c of my height, and his being "Pengy" since he said he walked like a penguin. 
Darrell was cremated with his mother retaining his ashes. He had a beautiful memorial service with laughter through the tears. I still think of him often, especially on his birthday (July 29th) and the anniversary of his passing. It's hard to believe he has been gone for so long.
