David Albert Donaldson
February 14, 1939 - February 20, 2018
After a lengthy struggle with Alzheimer Disease, Dave passed away at St. Joseph’s Villa in Dundas on Tuesday February 20, 2018, at the age of 79, with his wife and son by his side. He is survived by his wife Sharon (née Moreau) of 57 years, daughter Dr. Suzanne Donaldson (Dr. Sally Barrio), grandchildren Jack, Claire and Georgia of Vancouver, BC, and son Michael (Carolyn) of Burlington, ON. Dave will also be missed by Sharon’s sister Carole Maga and her husband Jim, niece Cathy Maga (Richard Turner), Duncan and Ryan Turner, and nephew Paul Maga (Paula Mahony), Tyrus and Luke Maga. Dave was a dedicated employee of Bermingham Construction/Berminghammer Corporation. He served as Accountant/Secretary Treasurer for 22 plus years. He loved the family farm which allowed him to raise and enjoy the company of many horses, goats and cows, as well as dogs and cats and various other critters that found their way to our property. Dave was an avid golfer, fisherman and a handyman who could build or fix almost anything, until the disease robbed him of his abilities. Many thanks to Paulina Nawrocka of CCAC, Dr. Paul Hart of King West Medical, Dr. Hugh Boyd and the staff of St. Joseph’s Villa, especially the wonderful caregivers on Pine Grove. Cremation has taken place.
