Darcel Ann (Burrell) Schouweiler, 71

Darcel Ann (Burrell) Schouweiler was born September 19, 1953, to Warren and Barbara Burrell in Lebanon, Oregon. Darcel grew up in Petersburg, Alaska, where she met her first husband, Terry Carolin. Together they had two children, Amanda and Heather. After their separation, Darcy reconnected with her high school sweetheart Harold "Terry" Schouweiler. They married and had their daughter Katie.

Splitting their time between Petersburg and Elma, Washington, Darcel had many adventures - hiking the Chilkoot Trail, homeschooling, camping and geocaching. Darcel enjoyed fishing and setting crab pots on the beach in front of their home in Petersburg, gardening, and spending time with her daughters, six grandchildren and her many friends that she acquired throughout her life. She enjoyed operating Frogs RV Park, getting to meet and socialize with people from all over the world.

Darcel passed on January 20, 2025. She is survived by her husband Harold T. Schouweiler; daughters Amanda O'Carolan, Heather (Teddy) Bailey, and Katie (Nick) Gonsalves; grandchildren, Jeada Lay, Jonah Lay, Joshua Lay, Maureen Needham, Zaydin Gonsalves and Xandria Gonsalves; brothers, Galen Burrell and Don Wikan; and sisters Susie Burrell and Samantha Williams.
