He was a great teammate with a heart of gold and a smile that lit up pit road. Rest in peace. We love you and we miss you already. Never stop smiling.”

In a Facebook post, the organization continues its heartfelt message: “Last weekend we received the terrible news that our dear friend, Darryl, had passed. We are still at a loss for words and can’t believe you’re gone.”
