She graduated from Camas County High School in 1958, and attended Boise Community College in the nursing program for a year before her marriage to Lynn in 1960. After marriage, she and Lynn lived in Meridian, Idaho, where she worked for Argonaut Insurance for five years before moving to Washington in 1966.

Darla was a self-taught amateur musician. She could be found frequently playing her antique piano, accordion, or ukulele. She enjoyed sewing, making Christmas ornaments, gardening, home making, making jelly and jam, and canning. Mostly though, she enjoyed having the house full of kids.

Notes:

Chett L. Barkdull was born April 5, 1967 in Burien Washington to parents Lynn and Darla Barkdull; he passed away at his home in Marysville on October 14, 2011 at the age of 44.

Chett attended Lake Steven High School where he graduated and later went to Everett Community College. In September of 2002 Chett married Michele Gallegos and they began their life together. Chett always lived life to the fullest. He worked for some time in Alaska fishing and working on the processors, but mostly worked as a framing contractor for 10 years. Chett never missed a day to go to the YMCA to do his work-out in Marysville, but his other activities included fishing, Crabbing, playing sports, dancing, karaoke and vacationing in Mexico. He was always sensitive and kind to others and his classmates say he was the ‘glue’ that held them altogether. Chett was always involved and always wanted to bring people together for events and gatherings.

Chett is preceded in death by his Aunt Nadine Baker and Cousin Hale Brooks. He is survived by his wife Michele Barkdull; parents Lynn (Darla) Barkdull; brother Brett Barkdull; and sister-in-law Tracy (Mike) Kernaghan.

A celebration of Chett’s life will be held at 11:00am on Saturday, October 29, 2011 at Evergreen Funeral Home, 4504 Broadway in Everett. A reception will follow the Celebration from 12:30-3:00pm at Evergreen Funeral Home, with a Graveside Service at 3:30pm at Machais Community Cemetery.
