Darryle Black was born in Grande Prairie, AB on July 10, 1936. He grew up in Camrose, AB and spent most of his adult in life in St. Albert, AB until moving to Victoria, BC in 1993.
On December 11, 2022, Darryle Black died in his home and went to be with his Lord and Saviour. He was an example of perseverance, a strong faith, and had a cheerful spirit up until
his last day.
He was predeceased by his brother Jim. Darryle is survived by his loving wife, Reta, and his sons Cliff (Caroline), Rob, and daughter Nina (Bruce). He also treasured his grandchildren who brought him so much joy: Kate, Becky, Meghan, Zach, Rachel, and Sean.
Darryle enjoyed success in various careers throughout his life, from teaching to a being pioneer in IT sales. After he retired, he found even more enjoyment and satisfaction in his devotion to God through his service to others. Darrlye was all about relationships and enjoyed meeting people in all walks of life; he had the knack of getting to know them well and quickly, along with being a
master of remembering their names and the details of their lives.

I read this obituary this morning, exactly two years to the day after it was posted. My morning Bible readings today had me reaching for a small bible I don’t generally use, but have treasured for many years. Inside the front cover dated 9th May 1987, is written. “Wishing you every blessing to-day and always, Sincerely Darryle + Reta B. Proverbs 3:5-6.” Through the years I have grappled with the message in this verse, finally accepting it as living truth. Darryle had always stood in my heart and mind as a living example of how to trust the Lord with all one’s heart. I wish I could have shared with him the influence his example has had in my life. Today I send my condolences to Mr. Blacks family, I pray you find a place of peace in his memory.
