Darren Cullison

Darren Cullison known to friends as "asshole" and to the family as "the golden child" passed away on July 15, 2021 at the age of 53, which is 28 years longer than he thought he would live. (every thing over 25 is gravy, right?)

Native of Bristolville, Ohio, Darren attended the school of life and graduated with a degree of "I don't give a fuckery". He lived this philosophy in the Mesquite, Nevada area for most of his adult life. His friends would describe him as shy, innocent, bashful and reserved.

In 1986 he began his career in the HVAC industry and spent the rest of his life proving that he knew more than every other person in the place. He was the Supervisor when he retired April 2021.

Darren loved practical jokes, including welding lockers shut and nailing the tool belts of his co-workers to the work bench and the all time classic "how many packing peanuts will it take to fill the VW Beetle car" of a coworker. (Just so you know, 10 bags). Least we forget, the time he placed a beeping smoke alarm under the front seat of his boss's brand new truck, rode with him and when his boss pointed out the beeping said " man your crazy, I don't hear a thing", and LEFT it in the truck up until the day it was taken into the shop. True to form, he never said a word about it.

Darren is survived by his wife, Bernie, who was truly the love of his life (who had to compete with his first wife, Sally his Harley). His daughter, Becca Cullison, parents William and Sherry Whittenberger from Youngstown, Ohio, sister Shannon (Shawn) Murphy of Austintown, Ohio, brother Tony (Tiffany) of Independence, Ohio, nieces and nephews, Conor and Nicole Murphy, Brittany, Gage, Taylor and Topanga Cullison.

A memorial bike ride will be held for his family and friends in Nevada, a celebration of life will be held in Ohio at a date to be determined.
