Donald A. Penksa, aged 71, from Brunswick, passed away on May 12,2024. My mom called and said, "c'mon Don" and he finally listened.
Don was born on April 12, 1953. He went on to attend Garfield Heights High school, graduated in 1971 and then onto trade school to be a tool and die maker. He worked at Zip tool and die, Red Rock Stamping Co. (in Chandler, Arizona) then A.J. Rose and Kate Corporation.
Don was preceded in death by his parents, Arnold and Helen Penksa, loving wife, Linda (Hughes), daughter, Laura; in-laws, William and Ruth Hughes; brother-in-law, Patrick Valliere and sister-in-law, Debbie Penksa.
He is survived by his children, Jennifer Sims (Todd), Gregory and Lisa; brother, Arnie; sister-in-law, Kathleen Valliere and his grandchildren, Jacob and Jared. Uncle to Elizabeth, Russell, Joseph, Sarah and A.J. Friend of Lauren Stephen.
No services will be held. The family will have a celebration of life at a later date. Condolences and special memories of Don can be shared with his family online at www.heritagecremationsociety.com
