Darell was born to Harold and Pearl (Naber) Pike at Allen Hospital in Waterloo, Iowa on November 12, 1929. The family moved to a farm in the Osage area where Darell attended country school until attending and graduating from Plymouth High School in 1947. After graduating, Darell worked for various farmers and also the Sugar Beet Plant and Armours (Deckers). In January 1951, Darell went into basic training for the United States Army in Kansas.
On June 9, 1951 Darell was united in marriage to Dolores Ione Preuss in Fairbault, MN. They lived in Kansas and eventually California before moving to Mason City following Darell's discharge from the Army in 1953. The couple moved to acreage between Plymouth and Rock Falls in 1954 and Darrell returned to work at Armour's until his retirement.
Darell and Dolores had four children; Nancy, Alan, Daniel and Cindy. He accepted the Lord as his personal savior November 28, 1962. Dolores passed away January 1, 1997. He stayed on the farm that they shared until the fall of 1999 when he moved to the Ponderosa trailer court in Nora Springs. Darell enjoyed many things including walking, riding his bike and dancing. He also enjoyed helping his sons farm, playing cards with the guys at the Rock Falls elevator and watching his grandchildren in their sporting events. He remained very active until his liver disease progressed and weakened his body. Darell enjoyed being with his family and friends.
