The family of a man who was found dead in Harlow have described him as a “charismatic person”. Emergency services were called to The Rows in Harlow on December 18 following reports of a man found injured.
Police and ambulance colleagues attended shortly before 9.15pm but sadly Darren Moss, 59, was found dead at the scene. Three men – aged 43, 44 and 61 – were arrested on suspicion of murder but later released on bail until March 10.
Paying tribute to him, Darren’s family said: “There are no words that can convey the immense loss we all feel at Darren’s unexpected and sudden passing. Darren was a charismatic person who had the ability to find humour in everyday life. He made people laugh.

“When asked what the family will remember most about Darren, everyone has said the same: ‘He made me laugh, he was so funny’.
