We Remember

MCINTOSH, Donald John

It is with heavy hearts and loving memories that we say goodbye to Donald John McIntosh who passed away Sunday, December 15, 2013. 

 

Donald was an educated, creative entrepreneur, a lover of skiing, football and travel, an avid reader and collector of great music.  He had a strong sense of community, informed political opinions and believed all that were younger than he should have a healthy respect for their elders. 

 

He didn’t consider himself a chef per say, but we will always remember his fantastic barbequed burgers, his signature pork-chop casserole and his family breakfast creation, Dreams.  He could build a dog house that would withstand gale-force winds and joked that he went to the hardware store just to be sure they were still selling hammers.

 

All who knew Don knew him to be an honest, sincere, gentle man; straightforward, intelligent and a true lover of the Okanagan Valley and all it had to offer.

 

Donald is survived by his wife Odile, son Kent (Andrea), step-son Brad (Rose), step-daughter Vicky (Rick) and grandchildren Simone, Brianne, Rryla, Damond and Sadler.  He was sadly predeceased by his daughter Lindsay.

 

There will be no service as per Don’s request.  The family will have a private celebration of his life at a later date.  If you wish to send a condolence, post photos or share a memory, please scroll down the page to the area called “Share Your Condolences.”
