Donald has gone to rejoin his beloved wife and son in the heavens. Don passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Friday, February 11, 2022 at Maplewood in Brighton in his 72nd year. Beloved son of the late Melvin and Beulah Hicks. Devoted husband of 43 wonderful years to the late Darlene Hicks (nee Sabine). Dear father of Kevin, Tracy (Brian), Jolene (Chris). Predeceased by his son Ian. Devoted Papa to Mathew, Cody, Alisha, Ty and Courtney. Great Papa to Aubrey, Payson, Gunner, Oaklynn, and Wylder. Don will always be remembered by his siblings and their families, Brenda, Dale, Dennis, Linda, and predeceased by Dean. He will be missed by many nieces and nephews. A member of St. John’s Ambulance for many years, he could be counted on to give help whenever needed. Time spent with family was his favourite way to pass the days. All who knew him will never forget his witty comebacks, and his joyful teasing, his love for country music and the outdoors. Gone from here but forever in our hearts. The family would like to extend a heartfelt thankyou to the entire staff of the Maplewood Nursing home for their patience, care and love during the many years he resided there. Cremation has taken place and a celebration of life will be planned at a later date. Donations to St John’s Ambulance would be appreciated by the family as it was a cause very dear to Don’s heart.
