Ocean View - Donald Lee Boebel, of Ocean View, DE, died peacefully at home with his daughters at his side on March 22, 2022. Born on March 29, 1935, in Buffalo, New York, Don was predeceased by his wife of fifty-six years, Carol Ann Templeton Boebel.
Don was the son of Roy and Louise Boebel of Orchard Park, New York. He met his wife Carol at the University of Buffalo where he attended after serving honorably in the United States Army.
After moving to Maryland in 1961, Donald worked for the federal government in Langley, Virginia for more than thirty years as a Senior Analyst. He was involved in the Rockshire Community Pool swim team, the local community garden project and started playing tennis. He purchased his first boat, "Sunny Daze," and spent many hours sailing the Chesapeake with his family and friends. Don was also an instrumental part of the creation of the F. Scott Fitzgerald Literary Festival, a festival that continues to encourage and honor aspiring and emerging writers. While living in the Washington area, Don belonged first to St. Thomas Episcopal Church, Washington, D.C. and then to St. Francis Episcopal Church, Potomac, MD, where he served as acolyte master and on the vestry. He was instrumental in the design and building of a major addition to the church that included the future St. Francis Episcopal Day School.
After retirement, Don and Carol moved to Ocean View, Delaware to be closer to their daughters. Donald enjoyed gardening, golfing, spending time with family and friends, reading, and learning about history and politics. Before Carol's death, Don and Carol spent warm and social winters in Florida. He was an active member of St. Martha's Episcopal Church in Bethany Beach, Delaware, serving on the vestry and as an usher and reader.
Donald was the proud grandfather of Mackenzie Hard, Sofia DiGirolamo, Nicholas DiGirolamo and Anthony DiGirolamo. His grandchildren, daughters, Susan Alis (Williamsburg, VA) and Sharon DiGirolamo (Ocean View, DE), along with their husbands (Roman and Stephen) deeply mourn his passing.
