Donald Ford

Donald E. Ford, 75, of Triangle went to be with the Lord while doing what he loved in his workshop on December 26, 2025. He was predeceased by his daughter, Karen Ann; parents, Vernon and Virginia Ford; and brother, Gary Ford. He is survived by his loving wife of 54 years, Patricia; daughters, Ami (Stefano) Cammarota and Kimberly (Corey) Kalem; grandchildren, Noah, Lila and Theia Cammarota and Jack, Jamal, Kendra and Kenyana Kalem; sisters, Edna Catherine Ford and Beverly (Coe) Hill; brother, Ken (David) Ford; many cousins; several dear nieces and nephews; and his beloved friends on Wilson Hill Road. Don loved spending time outdoors and working as a carpenter. Don took great pride in his grandchildren, fishing, hunting and being a source of encouragement and peace to others, offering his grounded, heartfelt presence in any way he could. His loving support will be missed by many. Don had a quiet way of showing up when needed and always knew the right thing to say. We look forward to going Home to be reunited with him and will hold his voice close until then. He is deeply missed already. A Celebration of Life will be held to honor his memory at a later date.
