age of 94. Born on January 15, 1931, in Wichita, Kansas, Don lived a long and full life, marked by
devotion to family and enduring strength of character.
Throughout his years, Don remained a steady presence for those around him. He shared a
loving marriage with his wife, Mary Jane, and together they built a family that brought them
great joy and pride. Don was the father of three children: Mark, Donna, and Julie, each of whom
carries forward his legacy in their own way. His role as a grandfather brought immense
happiness. He cherished time spent with his grandchildren: Antoinette, Mark, Josh, and Hannah,
and found renewed delight in watching his great grandchildren: Adaline, Demi, Levi, and Diego,
grow and thrive.
A memorial service will be held to honor Don’s life in San Jose, California.
May his memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved him. The Memorial Service will be
held on September 23, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Oak Hill Funeral Home & Memorial
