Obituary

Our Megan Rain has left this earth, but she will never leave our hearts.

Her vivacious smile and bouncy hugs are memories we will always hold onto. She formed deep friendships with people and believed in their journeys. She was always there to listen, love and accept her loved ones with open arms. Megan loved the ocean, her guitar and good drum circle on the sand. She was always down for a good horror movie! She had the voice of an angel and sang with a soft, but powerful voice about life and love. She was open about the struggles that this life can bring and helped many during her personal journey. She received the Recovery Innovators award for founding Sounds of Recovery, an innovative support group connecting musicians, artists, songwriters and singers during their recoveries. She was a manager at The Lighthouse in 2019, a sober living home aimed at helping women find and sustain recovery. She also assisted with recovery advocacy projects through the NW Alano Club in Portland.

Megan leaves behind a family who will forever celebrate her free spirit that is now flying high. Father, David Casteel; Mother, Nina Casteel; Older Brother, Dakota Casteel; Younger Brother, Zachary Casteel and step-family, Jenn, Nicholas and Jacob Paige.
