Daryl Lee Bewick, 75

| April 4, 2023 1:45 AM

Daryl Lee Bewick, 75, of Pinehurst, Idaho, passed away peacefully at his home on March 30, 2023, surrounded by his loving family. Daryl was born on Jan. 5, 1948, at the Providence Hospital in Wallace, Idaho, to Grant and Athlene (Bailey) Bewick.

Daryl graduated from Kellogg High School in 1966, and studied automotive at North Idaho College. Daryl spent his free time hunting, fishing, working on cars, playing pool and darts and spending time with his family. Daryl worked for the state of Idaho as a Structural Engineer for 38 years and retired in 2005.

Daryl will be remembered by his family for his amazing intelligence and wit. He alone knew the proper way to construct the perfect cheeseburger and taught his children such. Spotting a tamarack tree in the thick of the woods was a fine art learned from him. His children, grandchildren, etc., all got their intense work ethic from Daryl, as he was the model of working hard for what one wants and needs in life. Daryl will be missed greatly and even as their hearts ache over the emptiness left behind due to his leaving, the memories will forever make a smile appear upon their faces.

Daryl is preceded in death by his father, Grant Bewick; mother Athlene (Bailey) Bewick; two brothers, Larry Bewick and Jerry Bewick; his oldest son, Rick Bewick and youngest daughter, Cyndi Bewick.

He is survived by his wife of 34 years, Marilyn (Mullin) Bewick; his sister, Carlene (Gary) Truitt; as well as seven children, Michille Bewick of Southington, Conn., Ken (Paula) Bewick of Monroe, Wash., Daryl (Leeann) Bewick Jr. of Kellogg, Idaho, Heather (John Saari) of Anchorage, Alaska, Tiffney Hojem of Kingston, Idaho, and Steven (Claudia) Sharp of Pinehurst; and grandson/son Richard Bewick of Pinehurst. Daryl is also survived by his loving grandchildren, Spicie Barton of Oregon, Keyla Roy of Connecticut, Kellen Jackson of Connecticut, Kendra Jackson of Connecticut, Spencer Jackson of Connecticut, Delilah Bewick of Idaho, Bailey Bewick of Idaho, Ben Beck of Idaho, Lucas Bewick of Idaho, Zach Bewick of Idaho, Lily (AJ) Bewick of Idaho, Charlie Bewick of Alaska, Anthony Hood of Alaska, Ashley Bewick of Alaska, Nicholas Saari of Alaska, Joslyn Hojem of Idaho, Macy Hojem of Montana, Rowin Rollings of Idaho and Hailee Sharp of Idaho; also surviving Daryl are 12 great-grandchildren, along with three great-great-grandchildren; as well as 14 nephews and 14 nieces, all of whom he loved dearly.
