The Life Story Of Our Beloved Donald G.
Deacon Donald Guillory, Sr. was born August 17, 1958, in Lafayette, Louisiana, to the late Joseph and Mary Guillory. After birth, Donald was relocated to the City of Beaumont, Texas, where his awesome legacy begins. Donald accepted Christ at an early age and was baptized at the St. Peter Missionary Baptist Church in Beaumont, Texas, where he was ordained as a deacon, on the finance committee, and as President of the Male Chorus.
He grew up in Beaumont and was educated in the Beaumont Independent School District, graduating from Hebert High School in 1976. After graduation, he worked alongside his brothers and father, pouring concrete to provide for his family. He was later was employed by the City of Beaumont, where he worked for 26 years. He started in the Streets and Drainage Department and finished his career in the Transportation Department, where he finalized his retirement on January 27, 2015.
Donald was very active and loved many sports. He was a Lakers basketball fan, but mostly a BIG TIME Dallas Cowboys fan. He watched many of the games that ended his night with either a big smile or a big frown, but he always stayed loyal to his teams. Another of his favorite sports was volleyball, which he played for several years and won a large number of trophies playing in various leagues with an awesome team of family and friends. He also loved bowling, where he played in a bowling league with family and friends. He gave time to the community as well by coaching little league baseball at Spindletop for 10+ years, where he coached, umpired, worked the concession stand, and helped with anything needed at the facility.
On Saturday, February 11, 2023, Donald was visited by the angel of death and departed this earth, and now he rests in the arms of Jesus.
Donald was preceded in death by his father and mother, Joe and Mary Guillory; sisters, Dorothy Hill (Aunt Nan), Jane Guillory (Aunt Sis), Olivia McCown (Sis), Oceola Guillory and brothers, Walter Guillory, LJ Guillory, and Lee Burgesse Guillory along with other family and friends who have been called home to Jesus.
Donald leaves to cherish his memories a loving and devoted wife of 42 years, Sheryl Guillory; sons, Donald Guillory, Jr. (Tiff), Dennis Guillory (Kisha), and Douglas Guillory (Latonya); daughter, Darnisha Guillory; grand-daughter, reared and raised by him and his wife, Danjia Guillory, brothers, Wilbur Guillory (Kay), Clayton Guillory, Calvin Guillory (Charlene), James "BB" Steven; sister, Callie Parkerson; eleven grandchildren, many relatives, and close friends who will always cherish memories and moments of and with Donald.
