Caitlin Anne McDermott Follstad of Anacortes, WA died unexpectedly on April 9, 2024, in Anacortes, WA at the age of 41. Caitlin was born September 28, 1982, in Kirkland, WA to Kathleen Anne McDermott.

After her Master’s graduation, Caitlin became engaged to Kevin Mills Follstad, also of Anacortes, and Caitlin secured a job at Pukalani Elementary on the island of Maui. The couple moved to Kula, then Makawao,HI, and was embraced into the “Ohana” spirit of family that the local islanders are known for, especially by her friends at Pukalani. The couple spent seven years on Maui before returning to Washington State for the birth of her first child in 2016.

Caitlin was predeceased by her mother, Kathleen McDermott, and an aunt, Coleen McDermott. Her husband, Kevin Follstad, is missing and presumed dead.

She is survived by her daughters Fiona and Ada and son Lochlann of Anacortes, WA; aunts Susan McDermott of Anacortes and Lee Anne McDermott of Sammamish, WA; cousins Megan (Wylie) McDermott of Anacortes and Patrick Dougherty (Benjamas of Pichit,TH) and many extended cousins and loved friends.

A celebration of life is planned and will be announced once a date and location have been finalized. Caitlin will be laid to rest at Grandview Cemetery in Anacortes. To share memories and to check for updates on her service, please visit www.evanschapel.com/obituary/cait-mcdermott-follstad.
