Paul Doner

I worked for the Bay County Department of Social services for twenty five years. I worked in the the children and adult services units. On several occasions I was mandated by law to file petitions on vulnerable or abused clients. I found judge Doner to be a fair judge who looked out for our most vulnerable clients. Judge Doner was always interested in all of the facts so that the parties that needed assistance/safety from the court would be best served. He will be missed by all. My...

My sincere empathy to the Doner family. Judge Doner was a great boss to work for. He was a fair man and it wasn't beneath him to socialize with his employees. The judge and his staff would bowl on our lunch hour which was a lot of fun and then there were the Holiday luncheons that he treated us to, my favorite. May Judge Doner Rest In Peace.

Having moved to Midland Michigan, I just recently learned of Paul's death. I worked with Paul for most of the years he served as Probate Judge.

I am so sorry to hear this news. My prayers go out to the Doner family.

I practiced law in front of him. Just a stable, kind, wonderful judge and person. Was always kind to everyone in front of him. Just a community gem

My condolences to the Doner family. Not only was he a wonderful man but also a great person that I had the opportunity to have as a boss. May he Rest In Peace.

Doner Family: Paul Doner was a great man. Kind, witty, and welcoming. As a new attorney he welcomed many just like us to the practice and taught us much. As a friend, you could not ask for better. Our condolences . Randy and Barb Hayward

To the Doner Family:
A great man has passed but he is in a better place...no longer suffering. I am glad I got to see him at U of M and again over lunch with Al and the family. Mr. Doner was a very influential person in my life starting with little league all the way through letters of recommendations for my college and professional career. He wasn't just a close friend's father but a man who stood for many things. I am proud to say I was a part of his life. I will miss his humor and...
