The Karall family extends its condolences and best wishes to Carolyne and to Daryl's extended family on news of his passing. What an interesting and fruitful life he had - but it only makes it seem sadder that his saga doesn't continue! As shared by others here, Daryl could engage you in a discussion on most any topic, because he had an insatiable curiosity and so enjoyed the "lively art of conversation". While working for him, there were many occasions where he and I disagreed (sometimes loudly), but he always allowed you to make your point and was fair enough to concede to a better idea when it was merited. Also like so many others here, the more fun exchanges were on topics such as baseball, BBQ, chili, basketball and anecdotes from his many travels. So many times I would pass his office and be called in to hash an idea out or have him share a joke. He LOVED a good joke, and he always had that twinkle in his eyes when he had one to tell. He also manufactured tortuous puns on a regular basis. Above all, he cherished his family. He was SO proud of all of his clan. Cheers to a life well-lived! RIP Daryl
