Donald is survived by his six children and their spouses, Colleen (Ed) Miller, of Port Crane, NY, Eric (Shelly) Morris, of McGaheysville, VA, Craig (Wendy) Morris, of Seymour, Tennessee, Carmen (Scott) Snyder, of , Greer, SC, Brett (Darlene) Morris, of Owego, NY, Brian (Brandie) Morris, of Candor, NY; fourteen grandchildren, Aaron (Beth) Miller, Sarah (Ben) Kolb, Megan (Tyler) Haggerty, Melinda (Quincy) Amavizca, Mallory (Rick) Johnson, Bradley (Jenna) Morris, Brittany (Pierce) Caldwell, Joshua Morris, Kalynn Snyder, Ryan Snyder, Madeline Morris (fiancé Ryan Nixon), Jacob Morris, Jason Morris, Rachel Morris; as well as many great-grandchildren.
