It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dalmar “Dal” Purdy on September 26, 2024, at the age of 77. Dal’s extraordinary gift for making everyone feel welcome and valued will never be forgotten, and his willingness to lend a helping hand inspired countless individuals.
Dal was born on November 23, 1946, in Council, Idaho, to Victor and Marion (nee Rollins) Purdy. On April 29, 1966, Dal married his high school sweetheart, Diana Davenport, in Lane County. Together, they had two daughters, Kelle and Amy.
Dal was predeceased by his mother and father, Marion and Victor Purdy; his daughter, Kelle Purdy; and his sister, Ellen “Coho” Miner.
He is survived by his wife, Diana Purdy; his daughter, Amy Purdy; grandchildren Kellse & Jacob Andersen, Tawny Purdy, Aaron & McKendrianna Purdy; his brother Gene & Rosie Carver; his sister Marianne Purdy; and several loving grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
A viewing was held at Andreason’s Cremation & Burial Services on October 9, 2024, at 3:30 PM. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Diana via GoFundMe.
