Ferguson, age 66, of Clearwater, who passed away suddenly on Tuesday, July 1, 2025, at the St. Cloud Hospital. Reverend Susie Putzke will officiate.

Darleane was born on August 14, 1958, to Albert and Janet (Phillips) Allee in Staples, Minnesota. She was united in marriage to Mark J. "Fergy" Ferguson on August 20, 1983. Darleane was a homemaker and had the unique ability to make any place a home. An excellent cook and baker, she always made sure family and friends were fed. Darleane was a fierce protector of family. Though she was often direct, avoided sugar coating things, and told you like it was, she also had a soft spot for offering motherly help and advice for those in need.
She is survived by her loving husband of 42 years, Mark; son, Rodney; mother, Janet; three brothers and two sisters.
She is preceded in death by her father, Albert and son, Max.
