Mark DONER Obituary

It is with sadness that the family announces Mark's passing after a lengthy battle with terminal cancer at his home in Peterborough on Thursday, July 30, 2020 at the age of 58. He was the much loved father of Julian, Hannah, and Quinlan and the beloved son of the late Paul Doner and of Doris Doner (nee Laton). Mark was the dear brother of Richard Doner Peterborough, Dale Doner (Sharon), Paula Allison (Jim), Alan Doner (Anne), Barry Doner (Diane, loving grandson of the late Harold and Alma Doner and of the late Jack and Lillian Laton. Mark will be missed by his many nieces and nephews and fondly remembered by his aunts, uncles and cousins. Mark had an unstoppable passion for the great outdoors and even during his terminal illness found the ability to go camping at his beloved Petroglyphs. He was a kind and thoughtful man that readily put others before himself, he will be missed by all that knew him. A private funeral mass is being held. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In memory of Mark, donations may be made to EVA's Place.

Thank you for being in my World — so much enthusiasm, so much knowledge, such a sense of adventure Thank you as well for bringing forward the need for help for people in dire straights or compromised health God knows how close your heart is to His, and I am glad that you may now sit with him and find a way to move forward and continue to be such a positive influence
From our times in Sir Sanford Fleming College, or the K&B Lounge to Hunter St East, working at Camp Catchecoma and cooking fresh-caught fish on an open fire to Leslie Avenue and CAMPING IN THE WINTER!!!! at the Petroglyphs — wow. You’ve worked on farms , sheared sheep, studies theology in Rome — and had children and are leaving a legacy of absolute wonderment. We are so very fortunate to have had you influencing our intellectual, theological and practical state of being.
God Bless you Mark —well, I know He already has.
Hugs
