Keith Darnell Obituary

I'm so happy Keith, mom and dad are together. Beautiful picture and may all the love we have for them carry us through the rest of our life till we join them. I love you Keith, always and forever.

Keith,

My dear brother, we miss you so much and think of you every single day. Since 2021 you have been joined in paradise by Mom AND Dad. Here on earth, your ashes were committed to consecrated ground last week with Mom, Dad, and Kevin. It was a beautiful ceremony. For anybody wishing to visit Keith's final earthly resting place, please refer to the information in the attached photos.

Miss you everyday Keith.

For as long as I live... I will always love you!!! FOREVER Your Lady

"There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love." ~Washington Irving

Keith, I love you and miss you more than words can express. You will live forever in my heart.

I never met u keith but i remember your tragic passing 4 years ago. I also work for at&t. I was recently assigned to the bridgeview garage where you worked. My condolences to your family & friends.

Missing you and Mom so much. Forever in my heart and Irreplaceable. XOXO!!!! love you

Hello my dear brother,
I am looking at that silly picture Brian posted of you with the Scottish hat and wig on. What a hoot! A picture of happier times..

I miss you honey, we all miss you so much. I think about you all the time.

The girls are getting married next year. You would be very proud of both of the wonderful young women they have become. You are still such an incredibly strong influence on them. They miss you so much. I am very grateful that they had such a close and loving relationship with you. You were so good to them, and good for them.

You were a gift to all of us.
Love you and miss you more than words can say.

Hurting so bad missing you.Everyday you are missed. Fighting for justice for you. I was your champion when you were little and I am now fighting for you harder than ever little brother. I will never stop fighting for you or stop missing you or loving you. Love you forever. xoxo Michele, ps. give Mom a big hug for me, miss her terribly too!

My dearest baby brother,

Forty four years ago today was such a joyful day for our family. (Brian was so happy to have a baby brother, he jumped up so high he touched the ceiling!)

The light,love and happiness you brought to all of our lives simply cannot be measured. We think of you and miss you every day, but we also thank God for every minute we had with you, what a gift you were. What a gift the memories we have of your time here with us continues to be.

I will love you and miss you forever.

Give Mom and Kevin a kiss for me.

Love,
Linny Lin

You may be gone but never will be forgotten. I feel your presence every day. Yesterday was a miserable day, 2 years since you were wrongfully taken from us. Love and miss you. Michele

Keith, it is now the second anniversary of the day we said goodbye. You are still the first thing I think about in the morning and the last thing I think about at night. Your smiles, jokes and laughter touched more people than you could have ever imagined.

Desmond Tutu said: "You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them." You were a gift indeed! You live forever in my heart.

PS Give Mom a big hug for me.

Miss You Keith. I know what your religious Beliefs were, but you also Never Criticized anyone for their own Beliefs. I know you would not Object to me Saying God Bless You and your Family. Miss You Buddy. Iggy G.

My Soulmate, My Love, time may pass since you have gone but it stand still in my heart forever. I see you in my dreams, feel you in my heart and love you everyday I breathe. I hear your words of wisdom, your laughter and see your beautiful smile. You have forever changed the kids and my life for the better by loving us. We miss you so My Guy!!! p.s. its a tough season for carp in Kankakee, we keep trying!

My wonderful little brother,not a day goes by that I don't miss you terribly. You were the best brother anyone could ask for. You were always therefore me, lending a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on. At least now Mama has come and joined you and you are together with Kevin, Paul, Uncle Bud and Aunt Edna. God Bless you, I will miss you until we meet again. Love you always, your sister Michele

Keith a year has come and gone since your passing. We still miss you so much it hurts. Last Friday on the anniversary of your death we as a family got together and honored you at the accident site. We then celebrated your life with all your favorite foods, stories of your hijinks and lots of videos of happy times together.

Love endures death. You will always be in our hearts.

Fly free--I know you are the falcon!

You are missed my friend. I cherish the laughs we shared together. I will remember the good times forever

Rest In Peace Keith. You were one of the Best! You will not be forgotten. -Iggy Gallegos

I miss you. It has been really hard not having you here. You were more then my uncle you were my best friend. I love you.

I just heard about Keith and I am very sorry for your loss. I am still in shock! Keith was such a great guy (a hard worker, and a loving person who could always make anyone laugh!) I grew close with Keith when he married my best friend. And, even though that ended, I still had a cherished place in my heart for Keith. Linda, I know how much you adored him and I know that he loved you & your family very much. Keith, you will be missed greatly!!

I just heard of Keith's passing. My husband and I are so very sorry for your loss. Though we haven't seen him in a few years, he was always in our thoughts. He was my nephew by marriage and we loved him dearly!! Please know that the family is in our prayers. God Bless Keith!

Keith was a sweetheart, my thoughts and prayers go out to his family. He was my brother-in-law. And my family really liked Keith a lot. And are sadden about the loss. Bless his family and friends. For he was a good man.

Keith will forever be in my heart. You and your family are amongest the best people in this world. The Darnell family--you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Please know my heart is filled with great sadness.

Keith, you were one of a kind! God Bless You and your Family! It was a Pleasure knowing you and working with you. As I grieve your untimely departure, I am also glad to say you were a great Friend, you always put a smile on our faces with your humor. Rest in Peace my Friend!

To the Darnell Family, all the words in the world could not begin to capture the void that we all feel in Keith's passing. In contrast, it would take all the words in the world to describe his life. I had the privilege of working with Keith and ditto what the rest of the crew says about him. He was a smart, funny, caring, hard working young man who loved his family and friends.

Mr. Darnell,
Although I did not know your son, he will always be a union brother to me. The time I spent with you today talking about him and listening to you share life stories about Keith makes me wish I got the chance to know him. You and your family will be in my prayers. I believe Keith is truly in a better place. I hope you find peace in this difficult time.

Brian,
You,Keith and your family will be in my prayers.I remember vivedly, the two of you training with me in 1997. May God bless your family always.
Respectfully,
Tom Saviano
