Darrell Kent Vanderburg, age 57, of Maumelle, went home to be with the Lord on Friday, July 10, 2020.  Darrell was born May 13, 1963, at Brinkley, Arkansas, to the late Donald Eugene and Dorothy Imogene Ousley Vanderburg.

Darrell lived an extraordinary life.  At the age of 7, he was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy and by the age of 13, was confined to a wheelchair.  Although he was physically disabled, he always focused on his abilities.  Darrell graduated 4th out of 457 in 1981 from Parkview High School.  Those that knew him, loved him and in turn he loved people. Having the gift of gab, Darrell especially loved visiting with neighbors and anyone that was talking a stroll around Lake Willastein which was near his home. He also freely shared his testimony and love of Jesus.  He spent untold hours reading and studying his bible.

Darrell loved all his four legged friends, whether a dog or one of his cows. He was preceded in death by his father, Donald Eugene Vanderburg

Darrell is survived by his mother, Dorothy Imogene Vanderburg of Maumelle; Sister Devonna Faye Vanderburg and husband James G. “Cully” Culpepper III of Maumelle. 

The family would like to give a special thanks to Mary Jenkins, Darrell’s primary caregiver the past year, she will always be a part of the family. The staff and doctors at CHI St Vincent’s for Darrell’s care his last few days.  Especially Joe, Julia and Amanda, the nurses in ICU that took such good cared of him. 

Darrell would want any donations to go for the glory of God.  He was a member of Little Rock’s First Baptist Church when he was able to attend. Memorials may be sent in memory of Darrell at First Baptist Church Little Rock, 62 Pleasant Valley Dr., Little Rock, AR 72212 or on line at www.fblr.org.
