Well deserved for a very generous and highly regarded man.

I think I saved every sketch he ever drew while sitting quietly in church. (Giving him some paper and a pencil worked wonders in keeping him occupied and quiet). He sketched people in the same pew, or the choir director, or whoever, and the drawings were recognizable, even at such a young age. Fun for me to see his talent being used to bring pleasure to others. Thanks for the nice article about my fun-loving son, David.

As a guy that makes his living by writing, I particularly enjoyed reading this: "Darrow has an immediate, painterly style and seems to revel in the physicality of the paint, with lots of luxurious brushstrokes in his subjects and broad swipes of textured color in his backgrounds." I think that's a wonderful description of Dave's style and it's a great bit of wordsmiting, as well. Nice piece on my closest friend.
