Donald Forbes, or "Don," as most friends and family knew him, suddenly passed on December 8th, 2017 from heart complications. He grew up in the town of Brattleboro, Vermont and spent most of his life lending a helping-hand to anyone who needed it. 

A mechanic throughout his entire adulthood life, he welcomed anyone who was ever in need with open arms. Donald was a loving father, grandfather, brother and friend not only to his own family but also to his second wife's family as well.

Memorial services will be held privately at his younger daughter's house with no open ceremony, per his wishes.
