He was born to Ladd and Myrl Vibbert on October 6, 1959 at Memorial Hospital in Yakima, WA and was a lifelong resident of the Yakima Valley. Growing up Darin always had a smile on his face and loved playing football and wrestling as an Eisenhower Cadet. Darin was an avid fan of the Seahawks. He also belonged to a group of friends, CBR (Christmas Break Recreation), which loaded up their old station wagon “Wally” and headed to Rimrock Lake where they had a cabin and would just be guys. He will always be remembered as a loving hardworking man, with the most unforgettable laugh that was not only contagious but a laugh that his loved ones will always remember. He loved being a mechanic but also dabbled in plumbing, electrical and construction. You could say he was a jack of all trades.
