He ran 1 term as a City Counselman before successfully served two terms as the Mayor for the city of Jeffersonville, and served many years as a volunteer firefighter for Twiggs County. In his free time, he took up an interest in antiques and expressed his love for them by running the Antique Store. Darrell most recently worked for the Bibb County Sheriff's Department where he was currently still employed. He handled the procurement of the County Jail. Darrell also enjoyed the outdoors and the simplicity that came from it. He could be found camping, hunting, fishing or golfing. A true joy of his was when he was cheering on the Georgia Bulldogs or watching a Nascar race. Above all, his family was the light of his life. He cherished each of them dearly. Darrell will be missed immensely.
