Darlene Karrow

Darlene Ella Haffely, age 82, a resident of Webster passed away on March 26, 2020.

Darlene was born on March 5, 1938 in St. Paul, MN to parents, John and Lorraine Haffely.

She moved from the busy Twin Cities to Webster for a slower pace. She worked at Parker for 13 years, retired and took a part time position at the St. Croix Casino of Danbury where she worked about 8 years. At the age of 80 she decided it was time to retire for good.

She will forever be missed by her daughters, Brenda (Kent) Karrow; Jody (Craig) Bartholmy; grandchildren, Tyler, Travis, Lindsay; great grandchildren, Lexie and Sean; her sisters, Norma Verdon, Marie Miller and brother Richard Haffely; along with other relatives and many friends.
