I was there that night I was a Reserve Police Officer I will never forget Daryle. He was my hero, he taught me so much I am still devastated by what happened. He was the only one who really took care of Reserve Police Officers. When I was treated terribly by the full time officers he always talked with me and gave me good advice, and put me under his wing. Why did he have to be taken away. It's not fair. God bless you Daryle, I will never forget what you did for me.

Hey Daryle,
I'm writing this on your birthday, July 31st. Happy Birthday! I still miss you everyday.
I've been getting connected with more of your coworkers over the years. I really like it, I see you in them and some of them I seen in you!!! I think it's great!
I'm still drinking a raw egg on your birthday in memory of you, so far none of your friends and coworkers have joined me in doing that. I know, they're a bunch of wussies! Don't worry, you know me.... I've got this!
I know you're having a great birthday in heaven! Give Mom, our sister Kim, Grandmother and Grandfather big hug from Jason and
Love and miss you everyday,

I worked at Orange County S.D when Daryle was there at CMJ. We often sat together during chow. Daryle was a happy man with a great laugh. And yes, what an appetite. The food was free to employees at that time and I lost count of the hard boiled eggs he ate. He eventually left like so many others to work the streets. I thought of Daryle today and decided to leave my thoughts. I recently met an ex Long Beach Lt and we shared some great stories of Daryle. RIP brother!

Daryle~I can not believe it has been nearly 16 years ago that you were taken. I reflect back to the days of Irvine Valley College; mostly the XTE Club. I will never forget the day we were down at the shooting range. I was using one of the old 38's that needed cleaning and repair. You were so kind to lend me your 45. I reflect when we had gone to San Diego for XTE Competition and all of us went out to breakfast. I heard you could pile it away, but when I saw it for myself I was a bit surprised. :) I will never forget at the college when my daughter Star that was also in XTE said that you helped her over the wall during practice as that was her (?) first attempt. The last time I saw you was at my home a week before you passed on. You had lent me your sealed off end gun for practice to strengthen my hand for shooting. I saw you at the college. Then we went to my place to get the item you had loaned me. Time fades certain things away, but for many you will always be in our hearts. In fact, since I seem to know no strangers I happen to talk to a former LB officer that works with the Irvine P.D. I happened to bring up your name. It was nice to know she use to work with you. :)
One day I went home during lunch from the college. I was shocked when I put on the tv and seeing a picture of you on there. I remember thinking to myself is that Daryle? It certainly was a shock and went into my daughter's room to tell her the news. We will never forget Your Memorial Service in Long Beach. That day I witnessed how the fellow officers as a whole showed their presence. I have never seen such a large Funeral nor Memorial Service in my life. It was a good testament of how people reverend you. May God Bless You and Your Soul. I Hope To See You in Heaven Some Day.

Daryle Black was the most focused individual I've ever known. We worked the Gang Enforcement Section of the Long Beach Police Department together from 1995 until I transferred in 1999. In late 1998, I had asked Daryle to work with me in the Gang Intelligence unit of that section, but Daryle wanted to stay out in the field. Daryle had connections all over the state and in the prison system and he would have been a great asset, but he was also very good in the field. His death was a great loss to our Department.

I will continue to drink raw eggs on your birthday (only 2) in memory of you. So, we'll all drink a raw egg in memory of you, eat pizza with hamburger on it, drink lots and lots of water! Look for the blue balloons with messages to you coming up to heaven on Friday and Saturday. I so very much miss you. Happy Birthday Daryle! Love you to the moon and back

PS.
Don't worry, the ones who don't drink the raw egg, I'll let them know they're wussies!! :-)

Daryle, 15 years goes too fast and yet it seems like forever ago. You have forever left an impression on so many lives. I will always remember how you were always there for me. You gave the best advice and I was always so thankful for that. Thanks Daryle for just being a friend. Miss you my brother. I'll see you again one day!

Its unfair that someone like you Daryle, someone who left such a good mark on society and generally cared for people was taken from us. You made the world a safer and better place. I'm back on the west coast and think about you a lot. You are missed...you are loved.

Daryle,

15 years ago I had plane ticket for Jason and I to come out and visit you. We talked about a surprise birthday party for Jason, you were telling me how excited you were to plan on bringing your nephew out to visit. You were going to give him tour of the Police Department, show him the K9 dogs!
I was going to tell you Jason and I were going to move out there. You and I talked about it for awhile and...........l was ready to do it.

Then, April 30...........

The day of the memorial in Long Beach was the day Jason and I were to arrive in California. Two days later, May 6th was your funeral (same day as my birthday. I want to thank you for the best birthday gift- eternal youth!!!! For I have not celebrated my birthday since :-)....

April 30, 2000........seems like yesterday sometimes today, tomorrow and sometimes never........
You will NEVER be forgotten. Love you always my little brother

Daryle...you may be gone from this earth as we know it, but you will never be forgotten. I would have never thought I would never see you again after you were in our home a month before. I will never forget how you let me use your 45 because the 38's at target practice were lousy. I will never forget how you let me use your practice end closed gun to strengthen my hand/trigger finger. We will never forget how you helped Star over the wall. :) Nor will we forget how big your appetite was at the cafe before XTE Competitions. lol.
I hope to see you in Heaven. . .where we will always be safe and sound. May the Lord and His Angels be with your family and friends during this Christmas Season (2014) and always. God Bless You...Gentle Soul.

I took a couple college courses with Daryle at Saddleback college in Mission Viejo. I didn't know he was an officer until he did a speech on gang violence and famous rappers. He was always a very nice guy and humble but you could see his passion when he spoke. Shortly after our speech class I was watching tv and saw the news bulletin that he had been killed. I always think of Daryle Black and how just the short time of knowing him changed my outlook on law enforcement and responsibility.
