After graduating from high school as an Ontario Scholar, he attended the Michener Institute and became certified in diagnostic radiography. After 10 years as an x-ray technician at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Daryll assumed the position of Chief Tech at Sensenbrenner Hospital in Kapuskasing. At the time of his death, Daryll was Manager of Diagnostic Imaging and Labratory Services at Sensenbrenner Hospital. Daryll loved outdoor activities such as cross-country skiing, biking and hiking the shores of Lake Superior. In Kap, he and buddy Dean spent many hours finding the 'best' fishing spots. He found much solace reading on the dock at the Swain cottage at Remi Lake. In the past few years, Daryll and Holly enjoyed travelling to British Columbia and were looking forward to doing much more of the same. Per Daryll's wishes, cremation has taken place and his ashes will be interred with his parents in Marathon at a later date. A Celebration of Daryll's Life will be held on Friday October 22nd at St. Mark's Anglican Church at 11:00 am with Reverend Susan best officiating. As expressions of sympathy, donations to the Sensenbrenner Hospital or to the Wilson Memorial General Hospital in Marathon, Ontario would be greatly appreciated.
