Resident of the Month

Mr. Don was born in 1936 in Jamaica, New York, and was one of three boys. Growing up, he developed a love for sports and excelled in both basketball and baseball. After graduating from high school, he began working for Grumman on Long Island.

Don married his high school sweetheart, Jean, and together they raised four children. His career eventually brought him to Savannah, where he worked for Gulfstream Aerospace until his retirement.

One of Don’s lifelong passions has been golf. He enjoyed playing whenever he could and was fortunate enough to hit several hole-in-ones throughout his years on the course! Today, Don enjoys watching sports, playing Sudoku, and spending time with his family. He and Jean were married for nearly 70 years and are blessed with 8 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren.

Mr. Don became part of the Legacy family in March 2025. These days, you may find him enjoying a quiet day, watching his favorite sports, working on a puzzle, or heading out on the community bus for a Publix shopping trip. He also enjoys getting together with the other gentlemen in the community for lunch and fellowship.

We are so happy to have Mr. Don as part of the Legacy family. Congratulations, Mr. Don!
