Donald was a longtime resident of Blairstown, New Jersey, a place he proudly called home. He had a deep love for the outdoors and could often be found hunting or fishing, activities that brought him peace and joy throughout his life. Just as important to him was time spent with friends, sharing stories, laughter, and good company.
Donald was a familiar face at the Blairstown Inn and the Post Time Pub, his favorite local spots, where he enjoyed good food and conversation. He also looked forward every year to attending the Sussex County Farm and Horse Show, a tradition he faithfully kept and truly cherished with the Becker Family who loved him dearly.
He is survived by his stepmother Doris “Lucy” Easton, sister Roxann Helm (Steve) of Littleton, Colorado; brothers David Magrosky of Blairstown, New Jersey, and Greg Bowlers of Lakewood, Colorado. He was predeceased by his sister, Janet Fechter.
Donald will be remembered for his love of the outdoors, his loyalty to his friends, and his strong connection to the Blairstown community. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
