Darrell MacQuarrie, better known as 'Bear', had a great passion for living life to its fullest. He enjoyed a wide variety of activities - golfing, playing cards, music, following his kids in sports, taking winter trips to Florida with Joan, going to Fenway to watch the Red Sox with Jeff, making cd's and listening to music with Jill and playing with his grandchildren.
What was most important to him was spending quality time with his family and socializing with his friends.
He was well known for his kindness and generosity, always putting others ahead of himself. Darrell's heart was certainly big and whether it was a small favor or a larger committment, we could always count on him being there.
We will always remember Darrell as a loving husband and father, adoring grandfather, and friend to all. We will miss him dearly and will love him forever
The funeral service was held on February 14, 2012 from the Woodstock Baptist Church. Rev. Leonard Cousins officiated.
