Foley, Donald Patrick
« Don »– 75, of Debert passed away on Wednesday,
December 8, 2021 at home. Born in Halifax, he was a son of the late

for approximately 30 years before moving to Prince Edward Island to
start his journey into the restaurant business. Then moving back to
Halifax, Don worked as a superintendent for Humburger Inc. until he
retired to take care of his wife during her illness. His greatest joys

great grandchildren, as well as talking to anyone about how smart
Trump is.

children, Donnie (Donna); Denise; Keri (Rick); Mathew (Ashley);
special son, Gary; grandchildren, Tanner, Colby, Toni, Patrick, Lucas,
Claire, Griffin, Gracie, Brendan and Myles; 7 great grandchildren;

Foley; Bob (Peg) Foley; Marie (Jim) Rogerson; Arlene (Doug)
Goodwin.
The family wishes to
extend special thanks to the VON who made Don love country life and
made him feel like he had made true friends, as well as Dr. Gallager
who always gave Don the best care.
