“There is no better standard of a Man, Husband, Father, Brother or Friend than Darin McAllister. He has walked me through some of the darkest days of my life and some of the brightest! His character has always been unquestionable and above reproach. And we know that "All things work together for the good" and this will too! “
- Elder Darris L. Adkins
"I have always known Darin to reliable, empathetic, trustworthy, and both family and community oriented. He has been a role model, mentor, and spiritual guide for many across the nation. He served this nation for almost decade as an FBI agent, earning the highest decorations, without a negative note in his file."
- Irvin McAllister
"Twenty-five years ago I met and befriended Darin. Our relationship grew and developed into a friendship of mutual trust, respect, and admiration. I knew him, then, as a young man of excellent rapport among his peers, ambition, drive, compassion, sincerity, understanding, and a sensitive heart towards God. Today, I know him as a wiser man who encompasses these same qualities. My children know him as 'Uncle Darin'. I proudly call him one of my very BEST friends and closest brothers.”

Darin…”there really is no way to describe how highly I think of you, how much I enjoyed working and traveling with you, and how important your friendship has been to me. You are one of my favorite people, Darin, and a letter like this simply cannot do justice to how I feel. Without hesitation, I claim you as one of my most important role models, a title you hold for so many people without any one of them suffering for it in any way. When I think of the life that I one day want for myself, I think of you and your family, of your integrity and philosophy, before I think of anyone else. How special I always thought it was for you to be such an integral part of your community and church, holding the remarkable title of minister and counseling couples on strengthening their relationships, all the while fighting for truth and justice the American way. So many of us offer advice without ever developing the ability to follow it. You are part of that special minority that practices what they preach. This, I think, is the single most important reason why so many of us value your counsel so highly.”
