In Memory of Dirk Anthony Dastrup, USAF
March 22, 1999 – July 29, 2021
Dirk was an active-duty airman, stationed at Hurlburt Field in the Florida Panhandle.
Dirk Anthony Dastrup, was born and raised in Benson, AZ. Dirk had a heart of gold. His passion was always to rescue others. He always had an ear for his friends’ troubles. He loved the ocean. He had no problem swimming at 11 o’clock at night. He was learning to snorkel and scuba dive while stationed in Florida. His heart still belonged in the desert.
He loved Bath Bombs. He had a dream to serve Veteran Families with a package of Bath Bombs to honor their service. Mom is following by taking up his cause: Dirks Dream Bath Bombs Co.
Dirk suffered with Depression caused by Military Regulations. He was receiving counseling and medication, but to no avail. It wasn’t any source of help.
Dirk was 22 years old. He left behind his mom, his step father, his 6 siblings and father. His radiant smile, dreams and love are so truly missed.
His mother, Cory, is organizing an event in his memory called Dirk’s Dream to take place on his birthday, March 22, 2022.
