He was preceded in death by his mother, Lillie Long and his brother, Robert McCollum.
Donald is survived by his daughter, Amber Keller (Shaun); grandchildren, Ava, Sophia, Ryder, and Walker Keller; his father, Donald McCollum, Sr.; his sister, Amy Garmon (Ty); brother, Michael McCollum; and his nieces and nephews, Troy Melum, Alex Mize, Emily Pomikala, Ayden Garmon, and Nick Garmon.
Donald was a loving daddy, papaw, brother and son. He served in the Army when he was younger and jumped out of ‘perfectly good airplanes’ as he would call it. He loved his baby girl and his grandkids with all his heart. He was a hard worker and the toughest person you’d ever meet. He kept a positive outlook on life in spite of all his struggles, including a seven year battle with cancer. He fought the good fight and his family is so proud of him.
