Salt Lake City, UT - Darlene Ruth Dykes Roberts, our beautiful mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt passed away on November 16, 2016, in Salt Lake City, surrounded by family and friends. Darlene was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 5, 1927 to Joseph and Arlene Dykes. She worked hard to put herself through school and was employed in the financial department of IML freight lines.
