Darrian Martin had only 21 years to live, but her family and friends say she made the most of her time â in fact, she was just starting to figure herself out and was pursuing her passions.
Darrian was killed last month when the off-road vehicle she was driving was struck by a semi at the end of her driveway in Lemoore.
