Darcy was born February 15, 1972, to John and Martha (Mullins) Moran in Cedar Rapids, IA. She graduated from Benton Community, Class of 1990.

Family was Darcy’s whole world, cherishing time with her daughters and granddaughter. She had a generous and caring nature. Darcy had a way of connecting with people through her sense of humor and just being down to earth. Even when things got tough, she would reassure those around her that “Everything is fine.”
