Darlene Maulin Obituary

Mount Vernon - On May 13, 2022, my mom Darlene June (Ferngren) Maulin went to heaven on the wings of angels in the home where she's lived for the last 52 years. All of her family was able to see her that day before she passed away, and I was able to be by her side. She was 78 years old. Darlene was born in Bellingham, WA to Robert and Bernice Ferngren and she graduated from Bellingham High School in 1961.

Her greatest treasure by far was spending time with her family and friends. I also know that my mom's pride and joy has been watching her two grandsons grow up. Her love and admiration are immeasurable. And our love for each other as mother and daughter? Simply cannot be placed into words!

Darlene had a lifetime career as an accomplished hairdresser, at one time owning a successful salon in Skagit Valley. She retired from the beauty business but kept her creativity going by painting unique glassware, small furniture, pottery, and rocks (a member of Whidbey Island Rock Club). My mom and I had great fun with the rocks. She would paint them, and I took them on my hikes, hiding them across the beautiful P.N.W. It was exciting and rewarding when someone posted one of the rocks she painted on Facebook. Keep your eyes out on the trails!

Darlene is survived by her daughter Mindy (Mark) Wilcox, grandchildren Kyle and Jordan, her sisters: Donna (John) Hager, Diane (Michael) Newell, and Deedee (Dan) Nielsen.

A Celebration of Life will be held on June 13th in Mt Vernon, WA. For service details, please email Mindy at [email protected].

I am saddened to hear of Darlene's passing. I remember her well from junior high and high school, we were friends and paled around together in our early teens. The last time I saw here was at our 50th class reunion. She was just as cute as ever, had hardly changed a bit... Please accept my sincere condolences to her family...I know you will miss her beyond measure.
