William Donald (Don) Clouston
May 8, 1925 to July18, 2019 – Balsam Lake, Kawarthas
Don, WWII Veteran (First Canadian Parachute Battalion) passed away peacefully surrounded by his family and caregivers on July 18, 2019 at Sunnybrook Veterans Center.
Loving husband for 68 years of Jean (predeceased in 2016). Beloved father of 9, Sandy, Diane (Ron), Dave (Sue), Judy, Irene (Ralph), Tom (Lil), Barb (Pat), Bill, and Mike (Janice). Doting grandfather of 17, Kathy, Angie, Tammy, Kyle, Shannon, Nicole, Steve, Andrew, Nathan, Daniel, Alison, Veda, Michaela, Matthew, Kathryn, Paige and Owen and great grandfather of 6, Olivia, Charlie, Anna, Hadlie, Pippa and Jaxson.
Don loved spending time “puttering around” his home on Balsam Lake. He was happiest when hanging out with his large family at “the lake”.
We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude and thanks to Dr. Alena Hung, the nurses, staff and volunteers at Sunnybrook Veterans Center for their compassion and excellent care of Don over the past 19 months which enabled us to enjoy this additional time with him. Many thanks to his extended family and friends for all their support of Don over the years.
