My deepest condolences to Doug, Marianne, Bob, Tyler, Phillip, Doris, and Jim.  The loss of Donald will always be felt.

The depth of my love for Donald and Karleen is one that defied logic.  They were my godparents, but their love for me never stopped.  Long after their commitment of seeing I was raised in the church and receive communion was completed; their love stayed ever present.  The bond I felt with them from childhood never faded. 

I have random thoughts of joyful moments crossing my mind of my times spent with him.   The taste of fried potatoes he made for me in a skillet with bacon grease on an island in the Ohio during a camping trip.  Being picked up by boat in Howell during high water and transported back the island of land that was the front yard on Old Henderson Road.  The cold water he kept for us workers in a cooler aboard the detasseling machine. Watching him ride a minibike, his compressed body hid mostly by his legs. 

I am glad to have enjoyed so many wonderful days with Donald and Karleen growing up.  I feel even more blessed I have the pictures to reminisce and share.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all and hope to see you in the near future.


Doug and MaryAnn:  Your Dad was one of the finest people I ever knew.  Always friendly, everybody in Union Township thought the world of him.  He will be missed.

Doris and Jim, Doug and Mary, Tyler and Phil, and Chris

Nancy and Wayne

To the whole family, you are in our thoughts during this difficult time. Donald was a constant positive presence in our lives and will be greatly missed. Through the years, we could count on Donald to lend a hand, give his signature wave, keep it cool and even rescue his friends stranded in flood waters (check out this picture). If his life was a western, he would definitely be the man wearing the white hat—he was one of the best!  Sending our love. Thank you for sharing all of the wonderful photos of Donald. 

We are so sorry for your loss.  
Aunt Louise always mentioned him when we used to visit her.  
We always enjoyed talking to Donald through the years whenever we would see him.   He was always smiling and friendly.

Our sympathy to the family,
Wendelene and Jim

I’m so sorry to hear about Donald. Prayers & hugs to your family during this difficult time.

Doug, Mariann, Bob, Tyler, Phil, Doris, and Jim,

My sincerest condolences for the loss of your father, brother, and grandpa. Donald was kind, humble, and supportive with a heart of gold. My dad’s calming, quiet force and my godfather. We will dearly miss him!

Love,
Shari & Jon



Doug;  I am so sorry that you and your family have had to bear the loss of your father at this difficult time.  I'm thankful that I got to know your parents through the "C" company group.  My husband and I were never involved in a nicer group of people.  We greatly enjoyed the reunions, picnics, parties, etc.  After the loss of my husband, the luncheons at the Canton became a special time when I could still feel a part of the group.  You and Don were such a part of it.  He will truly be missed.  God Bless  and comfort you and your family.  Your friend,  Alice Whitfied

To the whole family: my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.  I will always remember Donald with his a big smile, a big hug, and a great game of cards.

DONALD LINDENBERG WAS ONE OF THE FINEST MEN I EVER KNEW. HARD WORKING, UNSELFISH, SINCERE, CARING. WE WERE NEVER REAL CLOSE FRIENDS OTHER THAN SOCIALLY THROUGH ST PAUL'S CHURCH SCHOOL, FAMILY FELLOWSHIP, AND COMMITTEES WE WORKED ON TOGETHER. I KNEW HIM AS A FARMER FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. ALWAYS STRAIGHT FORWARD IN DEALING AND TRUSTWORTHY. A REALLY GOOD CLABBER PLAYER.

I AM SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

Doug and Mary  I am so sorry to hear about Don .I loved your mom and dad ,so many good memories and good times .God bless all of you,Heaven received another sweet soul.


MaryAnn, Bob, Tyler, Phil and Doug my heart goes out to you all. Please know you all are in our thoughts and prayers.   Jay will miss Poppy as well. He thought of him as a grandpa too.

Tyler and Phillip, you have my sympathy. Your grandfather was “bigger than life “. I enjoyed talking with him every time he came to your events at West Terrace.   So sorry. 

Doug,
I’m so sorry.  You could tell how close you were with him.  I wish I had words to comfort you.  I truly believe you will see him again.  Prayers for you and your family 

I remember attending birthday parties down in the country and playing in the yard. The folks playing clabber too. My thoughts are with you all Doug and Mouse and may your memories bring you joy.


I spent a lot of summers on the detassler that Donald would drive. Lots of good memories with some great people. My deepest sympathy Mouse and Doug.

I have known Donald and Karleen since I was a little kid sneaking out of bed to go get a snack when Mom and Dad were hosting their card club. And then working with Donald in construction. He was always such a joy to have on the job! Condolences to all his family and friends.
Bob and Carol Neisen
