Darrell D. Dahlstrom (D.D.) passed away on Saturday, February 21, 2015 at The 
Trace Assisted Living Facility, in Covington, LA, at the age of 84.  

Darrell was born on July 29, 1930 in Pettibone, ND and was raised in Appleton, 
MN.  He resided in River Ridge, LA from 1960 to November, 2010 when he moved to 
The Trace Assisted Living Facility in Covington, LA. 

After serving in the U.S. Navy for 4 years and graduating from North Dakota 
State University with an Electrical Engineering Degree, he worked for Shell Oil 
Company for 32 years, in the Purchasing/Quality Control Dept., retiring in 
1989.

D.D. had a love for the outdoors and was especially fond of spending summers in 
the family's lake cottage in Detroit Lakes, MN.  He enjoyed traveling with his 
wife, Jean, fishing, golf and spending time with family and friends. 

D.D. was preceded in death by his wife of 48 years, Jean E. Dahlstrom; 
daughter, Susan D. Leonard; parents, Irvin and Helen Dahlstrom; and brother, 
Arvid Dahlstrom.

He is survived by his brother, Rev. Myron Larry Dahlstrom; son, Peter E. 
Dahlstrom (Sylvia); grandsons, Peter J. Dahlstrom and Richard L. Munster, Jr.; 
granddaughter, Erica M. Leonard; great granddaughter, Kylie E. Munster; and 
loving nieces and nephews.

While he ultimately lost his long struggle to Parkinson’s Disease, we want to 
give special thanks to his two angel caregivers, Lisa and Paula, as well as the 
staff at the Trace and Lakeshore Hospice staff, especially nurses Holly, Mandy 
and aide, Tasha.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend the Memorial Service at The Trace 
Assisted Living Facility, 19432 Crawford Road, Covington, LA on Thursday,
