Darlene Dee Moran, a choice daughter of our Father in Heaven, passed away August 6, 2016, in her sleep while vacationing with her family in Flagstaff, AZ. Darlene was born January 16, 1945, to Bruce and Pearl Lydon in Lewiston, ID. She married Vermond L. Moran on March 10, 1972, sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple on September 10, 1974. The calling she enjoyed most was teaching the youth of the ward.
