Donald Ehrhart Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 2, 2016.
Donald Bond Ehrhart Jr., 66, passed away Saturday, July 30, 2016. Funeral: 10 a.m. Thursday at All Saints Anglican Church, Weatherford. Interment: 1:30 p.m. in Greenwood Memorial Park. Visitation: 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, at Greenwood. The world has lost a larger-than-life man, far too soon. After a brief but valiant fight, Bond Ehrhart has passed. How will we manage without this gentle, giving, opinionated, obnoxious, and colorful soul? His love of life, family, scotch, cigars, friends, and Christ - not necessarily in that order - were unsurpassed. Bond cherished socializing and had a knack for bringing all walks of life together. He always found the good in everybody he met and loved to help anybody and everybody who asked. A more generous person, there is not. One of his best qualities was giving hell to all he knew. It's safe to say if you weren't on the receiving end, you weren't in his inner circle. Bond's greatest joy, above all else, was family. He steadfastly stood by his children and grandchildren. He fought fiercely for their happiness. There has never been a prouder parent and grandparent than he. There are not words to express the emptiness, the void, the massive hole in our hearts that he has left. Donald was preceded in death by his parents, Elizabeth Mitsch and Donald Bond Ehrhart Sr. Survivors: Daughter, Arden Jones and husband, Cullen; son, Mitsch Ehrhart and wife, Teri; grandchildren, Addyson Jones, Rhys Ehrhart, Josh Jones and Zach Jones; sister, Cynthia Bearden; companion and love, Sally Young; former wife, Melvia Ehrhart; and best friend, Peggy Pekham.

We send our sincere condolences to all Bond's family and friends. We knew and enjoyed Bond for several years here in Brimfield. Cheers to the obituary that described Bond to a T. Bond brought many laughs to our family that continue today. We cherished Bond and his friendship.

Sweet Sally and family,
Bond was a dear friend and loved by us for many years. Seeing Sally and him and family at Round Top and other antique shows was always a joy. We hold you all in our hearts. His passing leaves a large void in his world of friends.
We will really miss that big old pal.
Love to all,
Marty and Bob Bailey
