Darrell Huston, Olympia, WA—Darrell Huston passed away today, leaving his family and friends mourning a man who brought laughter, support, and love to everyone he knew. He was not just an uncle to Cheryl Castello, but a father figure, offering her guidance and comfort throughout her life. Darrell passed away due to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), an unexpected loss for those who held him dear.
Affectionately known as "Unkie D," Darrell was the heart of many family gatherings, especially the cherished 4th of July celebrations at their family property in Littlerock. He had no children of his own, but his love and care for Cheryl and his other nieces and nephews were as if they were his own. His positive spirit, love for jokes, and role as the family peacemaker were defining traits of his personality. Cheryl fondly remembers Darrell teaching her how to drive and introducing her to Texas Hold’em, moments that left a lasting imprint on her life.
Cheryl has shared that her uncle had expressed his wishes not to be cremated, but the lack of a living will or life insurance has left her struggling to fulfill his final request. A fundraiser, "Honoring Unkie D’s Final Wishes," has been created by Cheryl to cover the funeral expenses and honor Darrell’s wish for a proper burial. So far, $185 has been raised from kind supporters, including a generous anonymous donation of $100.
Darrell’s sense of humor, his unconditional love, and the stories he told will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew him. As Cheryl and her family work to honor his final wishes, they ask for support and prayers during this challenging time.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Darrell Huston. Our thoughts and prayers are with Cheryl and her family as they navigate through this difficult time. May Darrell’s spirit and the love he shared be a source of comfort.
