You do not know me nor did I ...Dear Coffey Family,<br /><br />You do not know me nor did I know your son. It was a girl name Kacey that showed me what a wonderful person Darren was in his life here. This website is wonderful and I believe it really captures the goodness of Darren. Please be comforted by your wonderful memories of Darren. Although I did not personally know Darren I feel through Kacey and this website that I did. I do know the pain and sorrow of losing a child and brother at early. I do know the pain of losing someone so young and full of life. I lost my 20 year daughter,Holly Elizabeth McGrath,on September 16, 2006. It is a telephone call no mother should ever received. I will pray that God will comfort you and bless you with all Darren's good work during his life here on earth. Cling to the promise that you will be reunited with him again some day.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Robin McGrath<br />Proud mother of Holly Elizabeth McGrath<br />6/1/86-9/16/06<br />www.mem.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409063860744209289.post-25848658164924006572008-09-08T20:16:00.000-07:002008-09-08T20:16:00.000-07:00Thinking of you Darren - Take care of your dad &am...Thinking of you Darren - Take care of your dad & brothers.

I lost contact with everyone over the years and my dad was the one who first told me of this tragedy. I think back to so many of the memories we had together brother...the "Brew Crew" as we called ourselves. We had the time of our lives back then. I have never known anyone with as kind of a heart as Darrens. One thing I know for sure is that the memories still remain. Your presence had effected so many peoples lives. You were a true friend and those are hard to find. This is a loss that won't easily be forgotten. Although we lost contact over the years, the memories will remain with me always. I know this is not good bye, cuz some day, I will see you on the other side. Here recently I have been listening to a song that makes me think of you bro..."Bro Hymn" by Pennywise. Its basically about an untimely death. You will be missed but never forgotten! It has been a great honor and priveledge to have known you my friend!! Much love!!<BR/><BR/>To the Coffey family,<BR/>You are all in my thoughts and prayers and I wish you all much love. I am at a total loss as to what to say here to you all. <BR/><BR/>Jeff "Brown-Eye" BrownAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409063860744209289.post-31808826131820494452008-04-08T13:31:00.000-07:002008-04-08T13:31:00.000-07:00I saw a shirt today that said "In Loving Memory of...I saw a shirt today that said "In Loving Memory of Darren Bodie Coffey" with a mountain scene on the back. My heart sank. <BR/><BR/>The first thing I thought is that there clearly must be two "Darren Bodie Coffeys" because Darren was not dead. <BR/><BR/>I was very proud of going to school with him at CSUSB. I looked up to him because he was a very dedicated person. I learned a lot from him. He was so proud when he became a botanist for the Service (I used to tease him when he stopped focusing on his Environmental Studies degree to do biology...funny thing is we both became biologists). We took a ton of classes together, and on occasion we ran into each other in the field after we graduated. Darren was really into the Geography and Environmental Studies club at CSUSB because it got a few of us together regularly to go out hiking, or to just hang out. I tried to call him a couple of months ago to see if he was going river rafting on the Kings River as we have done together in the past (it is put on by a professor at the university every year)...the number did not work. I was disappointed that I did not get a hold of him, but I was really hoping that I would see him there anyhow...That trip is this weekend, and unfortunately, now, I know he will not be there. <BR/><BR/>I am so thankful that I was blessed to be able to spend substantial time with him doing what he loved to do...being outdoors. <BR/><BR/>Darren is awesome, and his family should be very proud for turning out such a great young man. The world has lost a lot when they lost Darren.<BR/><BR/>-James HickmanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409063860744209289.post-65792161153507680632008-02-24T16:57:00.000-08:002008-02-24T16:57:00.000-08:00Veryy sorry for your loss.

I was overwhelmed by the number of plants out here and Darren always took the time to help teach me, even when I asked him about the same plant a hundred times. He helped me with locating illegal OHV trails on the forest and with small mammal trapping, which he really enjoyed. He was always very repectful of nature. While we worked, he taught me California terms like "socked in," and what places I should see in the state. I didn't know a soul when I moved here and I always enjoyed working with and talking to Darren.<BR/><BR/>My heart goes out to his family and friends. He was a wonderful person.<BR/>Karen (Sacilotto) RieszAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409063860744209289.post-13383978661812122392008-02-08T13:41:00.000-08:002008-02-08T13:41:00.000-08:00Darren, As the new kid on the block in 9th grade, ...Darren, As the new kid on the block in 9th grade, you made it an easy transition for me to a new school. For that I thank you.<BR/><BR/>We shared a few classes, some laughs and some sweat on the football field. You and Larry always made practice barable with your hilarious comments. Though it's been years since we last saw eachother, I have thought back from time to time and remembered those moments with a grin. You had a special way about you that everyone admired, myself included.<BR/><BR/>So tomorrow when we all come together to say goodbye to you in the best way we know how, you will see the lives that you have touched with how you spent yours. Even in death you continue to touch our lives. Tomorrow your bringing together friends and family that haven't seen eachother in a long time. I'm sure we will all exchage funny stories about you and express our saddness now that your gone. But we will also be reunited with old friends and look back with joy at the times that we all shared.<BR/><BR/>However different we were back then or might be today, the one factor we all had in common was you.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for being the person you were.<BR/><BR/>Jason Statesjasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283694791346384282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7409063860744209289.post-54736651853278863242008-02-08T10:33:00.000-08:002008-02-08T10:33:00.000-08:00To the Coffey Family,My thoughts and prayers are w...To the Coffey Family,<BR/><BR/>My thoughts and prayers are with Darren and the family.
