Darrell Fleischman, 63 years young, of Rochester passed away peacefully with his family surrounding him at Seasons Hospice in Rochester on Tuesday July 30, 2013 of pancreatic cancer.

Darrell was born February 8, 1950 in Mankato, Minnesota to Robert and Cecil (Foote) Fleischman. Darrell married the love of his life, Mary Kroenke, September 27, 1975 in St. Clair, Minnesota. He worked for Crenlo in Rochester for 38 years until he was forced to give up his career due to his illness. In Darrell's spare time he enjoyed building model classic cars, carpentry, family adventures (including family vacations to Duluth, MN), and watching TV (especially forensic science shows).  Also, Darrell was a cheeseburger connoisseur.

Darrell was extremely loving and very proud of his family. Darrell is survived by his loving wife, Mary, and his three beautiful and successful daughters, Sarah (Mike) Montgomery of Eagan, MN.,  Abbie (Ian) Pannkuk of Duluth, MN.,  and, Teresa Fleischman (Fiancé Conner Reed) of Rochester, MN. Darrell is also survived by his brother Donald Fleischman of Nisswa, MN. He was preceded in death by his parents and his sister Darlene.
