It is with heavy hearts that I share the passing of my beloved Uncle Donny who lost his courageous battle with lung cancer on Saturday, October 18, 2025. He was a devoted husband, father, a loving family member, and a friend to so many.
Uncle Donny was known as a man of few words but his presence and love was so well known. He was a gentle, kind soul. That will be missed me so much.
He faced his illness with incredible courage and grace, surrounded by the love of his family.
He leaves behind his loving wife of 28 years, Debbie, who stood faithfully by his side and cared for him with strength and grace until his final moments.
Along with his wife he leaves behind his two wonderful children , his pride and joys— Jaclyn, a dedicated registered nurse who cared for her father with compassion and strength throughout his journey and John, who is in his senior year of high school.
As the family navigates this heartbreaking loss, they are also faced with the financial burden of medical bills and funeral expenses. We are creating this GoFundMe to ease some of that burden and give the family the space to grieve without added financial stress.
Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference. If you are unable to contribute financially, please consider sharing this page or keeping the family in your thoughts and prayers.
Thank you for your kindness, love, and support during this difficult time. ❤️
With gratitude,
Kerin and Family
