Salem - It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our father on October 16, 2018. Donald R. Coon went to be with the love of his life Naomi Jeanne. He was born on April 6, 1926 and lived in Salem all of his life. Donald served in the Army Air Force Corps in World War II as a Flight Engineer. After his honorable discharge from the Corps, he attended Portland State College with a major in Business Administration.
Donald's career in construction started by building homes in the Candelaria area. Later, he joined his cousin Robert Morrow as his superintendent in commercial construction. They constructed many buildings all across Oregon. Donald's passions were family, elk hunting and playing cards.
