Aunt Pat, Jason and family;
Please accept my deepest sympathies on the passing of Uncle Don.
Although I cannot be with you in person, please know that you are all in my heart and I am remembering you in prayer as you navigate through this difficult season.
Uncle Don has run the race and has been called from this life to the next; to be with his Saviour, Jesus Christ. One day, according to His timing, we will reunite with our dearly departed on that golden shore, just beyond the river. What a day that will be!
As you gather to remember Uncle Don’s life, and lay him to rest, may you feel the peace of God surround you now and in the days to come.
All my love,
Zachary R. LeShane

To Pat, Kimberly, Jason & Sarah and Family,
We are sorry to lose our only Brother, but feel he is now at peace in that wonderful place we call Heaven.
Don was always a great support of his church, the Salvation Army, and attended Salvation meetings consistently. I remember him singing many of the great songs especially "O Boundless Salvation" and "I have found a Friend in Jesus." It gave him much joy and peace. We all have good childhood memories of our youth and family life. Don was a hands-on person and could take apart and fix anything. In the spring he would grease my bike and pump the tires to get it ready for me to use. Later, he taught me to drive my dad's truck. When our first child, Barry, was born, he was happy and excited to have a little nephew. After he married Pat and moved to Wabush, everyone missed him especially our Mom. We were all excited when Don, Pat, Kim and Jason came home for summer vacation each August. Our families would all go berry picking, have boil-ups and spend some time boating on that beautiful Lower Island Cove pond.
We are sending love and blessings to Pat, Kimberly, Jason & Sarah, Brooklyn, Caleb and Abiggail. May the good memories comfort you as you grieve his passing from this life to the next. Sorry, but due to family commitments we are unable to come home during this sad time, however, you are in our thoughts and prayers and hope to see you this summer. Take care of each other.
Rest in Peace, Brother Don

Our whole family sends you our heartful sympathy in the loss of your Husband and Dad.
I am sorry I cannot be with you to say my final farewell.
I will share one precious memory of my brother who was very patient and taught me how to drive his standard car a “Chevy Biscayne”.
Hold on to his memories and may God give you the strength to face each and every tomorrow.
Our love and prayers are with you as he is laid to rest.
I know Mom, Dad and Jean(Lloyd)
Will have open arms to greet you to their heavenly home.
❤️ ❤️love

To Aunt Pat, Kimberly, Jason & Family,
Our sincere sympathy to you on Uncle Don's passing. Sorry we cannot be with you to say our goodbye. We have special childhood memories of times spent with Uncle Don, Aunt Pat, Kimberly and Jason such as days on Northern Bay Sands burying Jason in the sand and boating on Lower Island Cove pond. We always had Nanny Beulah with us, too. On one occasion Aunt Pat fell out of the boat and we all grabbed her, but she just had one good laugh for herself. It was so much fun! These memories will remain in our hearts and hope they give comfort in the days ahead. Take good care of each other. Hope to see you soon.
God bless you Aunt Pat, Kimberly, Jason & family.
Much Love,
Barry, Robinette, Blair, Wendy, Abigail, Riley and Rowan
