RIP Donald Seawell (DRS)

There are times in each of our lives that rain falls, hard times come and it helps to reach out to our friends and to our God for a little support. This is the place to express those needs, concerns and situations so others in the AAPK family can keep you in their prayers.

RIP Donald Seawell (DRS)

Post by Miller Bro's »

I have sad news to share tonight, I have been contacted by Josh Seawell who has informed me that his father Donald has passed away peacefully last night, he had battled lung cancer for the last five years.

Donald had been hospitalized for the last two weeks, was comfortable and in no pain, Josh said he never gave up hope and that his 59th birthday is tomorrow, he was way too young.

He will be sadly missed and my condolences go out to Josh and his entire family.

Wow. That's a shock at least to me. I chatted with Donald a few times via PM and didn't realize he was battling cancer. He had a great attitude very upbeat. He will be missed. Rest in peace Donald.
Thanks for letting us know Dimitri.

He will be greatly missed. Donald was a big part of this community and added a lot to AAPK with his posts. I knew he was battling cancer but did not realize it had advanced this far. Prayers for his family.

My condolences to Donald's family - DRS was a great member of AAPK and certainly will be missed. OH
