I am extremely sorry for your loss. It sounds like Darren was a wonderful man.
Was he related to Mike Coffey who was in the US Forest Service in Big Bear Lake during the 1970's? Mike studied bald eagles and was in a very severe airplane crash. He was a good friend of our family.
I noticed the similarities and couldn't help but wonder if perhaps he was Mike's son. Mike's wife's name was Carol.
Again, I am so sorry. My heart and my prayers go out to all of you. May the Lord's healing arms surround you in this great time of loss.
Darren, age 32, worked as a wildlife biologist on the Front Country District since September 2004, and worked previously as an intern on the Mountaintop District.
Although a wildlife biologist, Darren aspired to be a district botanist and took on many of the district�s botany projects including growing plants in the native plants nursery at Lytle Creek. He was involved in the big horn sheep project and he also worked closely with law enforcement and Mountaintop District employees in helping to close illegal OHV trails. Darren also worked on fire suppression rehabilitations, most recently contributing significantly to the Slide and Grass Valley teams.
Darren really cared about the forest and the work he was doing. He worked well with everyone and always tried to help people. He also cared a great deal for his community, and volunteered time to work with urban youth programs on the forest in partnership with the San Bernardino National Forest Association and the Bobby G. Vega Foundation.
Darren enjoyed being outside around plants and wildlife.
