Donald B. Benedict

Donald was preceded in death by his siblings Joyce Barber and Dick Benedict.

He will be lovingly missed by Judith, his spouse of 58 years; daughters Debbie (David) Buggins, and Donna (David) Sinnema; son, Don (Amie) Benedict Jr.; eight grandchildren Leilani (Nick) Broene, Kalani Tanis, Matthew (Kelly) Sinnema, Joshua (Jaimie) Sinnema, Sergeant Zachary Sinnema, Rachael (Jeremy) Harper, Ryan Benedict, and Kyle Benedict; three great-grandchildren; siblings Betty Arntz, Pat Benedict, and Ron Benedict; and many nieces, nephews and friends.

Don was a country boy at heart who honorably served his country in the U.S. Army. He could fix anything, making the most of his abilities for 27 years at Steelcase, as well as aiding his multiple friends. Don never said “no.” He loved to hunt with his buddies and did so for nearly 40 years. Don was a wonderful husband, father and grandfather.

The family wishes to express special thanks to all the nurses and staff of Faith Hospice for their loving and compassionate care of Don.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at 11 AM on Tuesday, October 8, 2019 at Resurrection Life Church, 5100 Ivanrest SW, Grandville, Michigan 49418, with visitation one hour prior to service at church.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in memory of Donald to Future Farmers of America.

The family welcomes memories and messages in their guest book on line at www.cookcares.com.
