Darren Richard Robb 1966 -2014

It is with deep sadness that I have to tell you all of the passing of Darren on Tuesday 2nd December at 10:50am. Darren had been unwell, but coping admirably with his cancer since his return from the epic sail around Ireland in August. He had struggled with pain and had been in and out of hospital a couple of times to get his meds under control, but in the end, the cancer was too aggressive.

He will be sadly missed. A true gentleman. Always ready to help you, never thinking of himself, and always up for a bit of banter, whether it was discussing how to tie a boat up, or your shoelaces, the right way was always Darren's way even though oftentimes the cart was most definitely before the horse, both got there in the end.

Darren's funeral will be held at his mother's home on Friday at 11am, with the burial at Fahan Church of Ireland graveyard. His family, Sarah, and Tobin would be glad to see you there.
