In loving memory of our Dad Darren 'Daz' Maroney who sadly passed away on 21st August 2026. My Dad was one hell of a man and I know very loved by a lot of people. His smile, his humour, his kind heart and most importantly love of Chelsea will live on. I will always be proud of him. At the start of my life it was just us and he lived for being my Dad. I can’t begin to express how grateful I am for everything during those years. We then welcomed my beautiful brother Alfie. He lived for him too. After unsuccessfully trying to get me into some form of sport he was very proud of Alfie and his more natural talent with that haha although proud of me finding my own goals and aspirations all the same and never failed to show up, for either of us. He always pushed for the best in us because he knew we deserved no less than that. He loved seeing us shine and would do everything he could to make sure it happened. That was our Dad. I know a lot of people have many memories with him and I know the impact he left and I would love to hear those stories and I know Alfie does too.

Work teams call during Covid 🤣 I worked with Darren for over 10 years he was so funny, kind and caring.  He was so proud of Niamh and Alfie telling everyone he could have their achievements.  He was also very proud to be a Chartered Financial Planner.

  • Never a dull moment on those lockdown morning calls with Darren! Even with the world shut down, he always managed to find a way to lift our spirits. RIP Darren, my thoughts are with Alfie and Niamh at this time. He was so proud of both of you.

Daz,

Life is going to be so much quieter without your larger-than-life personality. Looking back at all our holidays, Christmases together, and our entertaining, memory making nights out, there wasn't a single time where you didn't have us all laughing.

Seeing how proud you were as a dad to Niamh and Alfie, and knowing how much pride you took in being a godfather to our children - including passing on the Chelsea tradition to your godson—showed the huge heart behind all the jokes.

Thank you for being a friend and godfather. You’ve left a hole in our hearts, Daz, but every time we share a laugh, share a story, or see our son watching Chelsea play, we’ll be remembering you.

Darren Maroney aka Daz Peroni, would light up any room he walked into. A kind, caring and funny man, never short of an opinion but fair in argument. Loved his football, history, his family, Niamh & Alfie, and the occasional pint. Daz also loved Ted Lasso, probably one of his favourite series, watched the whole series several times, even spending a fortune dressing like him. A Ted Lasso quote fit for my mate Daz…”You know, growing up, I used to believe that if you did good things, you went to Heaven, you did bad things, you went to Hell. Nowadays, I know we all just do both, so wherever you are (Daz), I hope you are happy." RIP my mate xx
