Steven McDonald Obituary

Steven O. McDonald passed away May 20, 2015, in Apache Junction, AZ where he had lived for several years. Steve was born December 18, 1945, in Bellingham to Clayton and Velma McDonald. We always said Steve had many lives. He survived two brain aneurysms, a collision with a semi-truck, which he walked away from, and fire that destroyed his mobile home, causing him to spend a month in a burn unit. But a fall this past Christmas causing a brain bleed was an injury he couldn't recover from. Steve was preceded in death by his brother Michael, and his father. He is survived by his wife Patty McDonald, mother Velma McDonald, son Mark McDonald (Clover), daughter Amy Wauda (Mason), grandson Sawyer McDonald, granddaughters Kacie Joe, Jessie and Violet McDonald, and Makena and Madison Wauda, brothers Scott McDonald (Lorie), Randy McDonald (Connie), and sister Kerry Messer (Mick). A memorial service will be held on Friday, May 29, 2015 at 11:00AM at First Christian Church, 495 E. Bakerview Road, Bellingham, WA. To share memories, please visit www.molesfarewelltributes.com
