Darryls family has requested the PGR stand in honor for their loved one, not only as a great Officer but for his service to our country.
Police Officer Jeff Mulligan will have the distinct honor for riding Darryl's bike in the procession, Darryl loved his Harley and made sure that it will ride along with him as he takes his final ride.

| The "Thin Blue Line" is again diminished by the passing of this American Hero. May God bless your family, friends, and LEO comrades in the days to come and may they know that you no longer suffer, and that you watch over them now from the Heavens. I salute you for your courage, commitment and service to your country, and your community. You are gone but not forgotten. |

A Mother asked President Bush, "Why did my Child have to die in Iraq?" Another Mother asked President Kennedy,"Why did my Child have to die in Vietnam?" Another Mother asked President Truman, "Why did my Child have to die in Korea?" Another Mother asked President F.D. Roosevelt,"Why did my Child have to die at Iwo Jima ?" Another Mother asked President W. Wilson, "Why did my Child have to die on the battlefield of France ?" Yet another Mother asked President Lincoln,"Why did my Child have to die at Gettysburg ?" And yet another Mother asked President G.Washington, "Why did my Child have to die near Valley Forge?" Long, long ago a Mother (Mary) asked, "Heavenly Father, why did my Child have to die on a cross outside Jerusalim?" All the answers are so near the same. One died to save our Souls and the others died to protect our Freedoms. |

| As a friend of the family i want to send my condolences and all my love to the family of Darryl Mangrum. He was truly an amazing man. Over the years he has made such a difference in the life of so many people. He is truly a hero's hero. His years of service and his reputation speak for how amazing of a man he is. I know that as he has fought his fight with cancer he has always maintained the appearance that he was in no pain whatsoever. This also goes to show how strong of a man he was. The only thing stronger than that was his character. He was a man who always stood for what was right and i am proud to have called him a friend. He will truly be missed. To his wife, daughter and son i send all my love and best wishes through your hard time. He is a man that will never be forgotten. His memory will live on through the lives of the people he has touched throughout the years. May you rest in peace brother Mangrum. You will always be remembered as a hero to us all. |

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Msgt (ret) Darryl Mangrum, USAF Veteran/ LEO/PGR Member. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. He is
one of America's Heroes that will never be forgotten.
Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Darryl.
Going home, going home,
I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.
Morning
Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Every tear wiped away,
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
Going home, going home,
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.
