In Loving memory to Darlene H. Szklarski who passed away on March 31, 2022. She joins her parents Roy and Eileen Drolen and late husband Ronald Szklarski in Heaven. Darlene was very proud of her father who retired from the Chicago Police Department. She was an avid Cubs fan and loved her cat, Samantha. Remembered by former husband Richard Cook. Adored by her children Eileen Juarez (Scot Juarez) and James Cook (Kelly Cook).
Darlene treasured her time with her grandchildren Stephen, Ethan, Dominic Juarez, Katelin, and Chloe Cook while listening to their stores and providing them with advice. She was truly loved by her sister Sherry Pager (Dan Pager) and nephew Roy and niece Katie Pager. Darlene will be truly missed by all her family and friends, but never forgotten, especially on those beautiful summer days that were so special to her. So next time you are working in your yard like Darlene loved to do, take a moment and look up and let her essence shine upon you.
Arrangements entrusted to Sadowski Funeral Home of Hegewisch: 13300 S. Houston Ave., Chicago, IL 60633. Visitation for Darlene will be held on Tuesday, April 5, 2022 from 10:00 AM until 1:00 PM. Prayer Service to commence at 1:00 PM. Entombment to follow at Holy Cross Cemetery of Calumet City.
