Rick Hurll

EATON — Charles W. “Rick” Hurll died May 16, 2026, after a brief illness, surrounded by his family and a dear friend. Rick was born Aug. 31, 1937, in New Bedford, Mass.

His father, Charles Hurll, Sr., was a high school shop teacher, amateur magician, carpenter, avid collector of stamps, coins, rocks — a jack of all trades and master of many. His mother, Cynthia Huldah Sprague, was a highly skilled classical pianist who sold fur coats at a local department store.
