We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of our dear brother, Don.
Don is survived by brother Ed (Bud), sisters Cass Barnes and Virg. Flett, many nieces and spouses, nephews and spouses, grand nieces and spouses, and grand nephews and spouses.
He was predeceased by his parents Mary and Peter, sisters: Victoria, Anne, Rose, Phyllis; sister in –law Helen; brothers-in-law: Mern, George, Bill, Gerry and Keith; and nephew Cam.
Don was born in Beausejour and resided there all of his life except for a six month stint working at the Dewline, Baffin Island upon completion of high school. Upon his return he secured a position with Great West Life until he made a career change in 1963, at which time he attended university to establish himself in a teaching career. He obtained a position in Beausejour and remained there until his retirement.
Don was active in sports, participating in slo pitch ball, curling, and was an avid hunter and fisherman.
He was a great, son, brother, uncle and friend; a very kind and caring man.
Following Don’s wishes, no funeral service will be held. Cremation has taken place and a private family interment will take place at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Don’s memory to the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Manitoba, 200-6 Donald Street, Winnpeg, MB R3L 0K6.
