Donald, 72, of Elmont, passed away peacefully on September 16th, 2026, surrounded by his loving wife, Gerry and his family.

Donald was the beloved father of four children: Jennifer Eisenberg (Mark), Donald Musgrove, Lisa Melendez (Abner), and Melissa Hafner (Dan). He was a proud PopPop to seven grandchildren, Braylon, Daniel, Alexis, Kayla, Dylan, Nikko and Madison.

Donald was the sixth of thirteen children born to the late Vernon and Virginia Musgrove. He leaves behind a large and loving extended family, including many nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends.

He will be deeply missed, and his memory will live on forever in the hearts of those who loved him.
