Donald C. Paxson, Jr., 54, of Schuylkill Haven, passed away Tuesday, July 18th, at home.

 

Born in Pottsville on May 17, 1969, he was the beloved son of Donald C. Paxson, Sr. and Jacqueline Ann (Morgan) Paxson, Schuylkill Haven.

Halloween was Donald's favorite holiday, and he loved dressing up in costume. He looked forward to annual family vacations to Canada and swimming in the lake. But his favorite vacation of all time was a trip to Disneyworld that he would still talk about.  He loved attending country music shows and would dance with anyone willing to join him. Donald truly enjoyed life to the fullest.

 

In addition to his devoted parents, Donald is also survived by a sister, Tara A. Heher, wife of Jeffrey, of Schuylkill Haven, a niece, Alexa Marie Heher, and numerous aunts, uncles, & cousins.
