He was predeceased by his father John, his brothers, Gerald and Barry, and sister Patricia. Don was born December 24, 1952. Don's greatest joy was being with grandchildren. Don enjoyed riding his Harley motorcycle and just simply sitting in the sun enjoying that ice cold beer with friends and family. Don started with the railway at CN right out of school as a Carman. He continued to work with CN until he retired in March, 2008. He enjoyed his work so much that after retirement, he went to work at CEMR. Don was a great father and continued on as Papa to his favourite little ones in his life. He will be missed greatly.

Don was a pretty easygoing guy, not much got under his skin, enjoyed my time as his mate for a couple of years in Symington. RIP brother. - Posted by: Gary Sheane (Co-worker) on: Jun 15, 2017

Hi sorry to hear Don is gone, a long time friend since the 70's. We did a lot of stupid and good things together. I have a few pics of Don and his dad hunting ducks and going to Point Du Bois on our bikes and eating moose meat with his dad. I was in Toronto, can't remember year, but they had a deal on a Harley I picked it and even before it hit Winnipeg made a trip there and the States in a van. Hope he says Hulu to the dearly friends that passed away too. Look after his bike. Love u all. Life is too short Larry - Posted by: Larry Mozel (Biker friend ) on: Jun 15, 2017
