SALISBURY - With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved Donny (Donald) Pydynkowski, age 74 on November 21st, 2024.
He was born and lived most of his life in Danvers, MA before moving to Salisbury, MA to be close to his trucking business. He was the son of the late John and Katherine Pydynkowski, brother to Beverly Trueira and her husband, Frank, and Marie Belisle. Uncle to Ken and Jamie Rothwell, Danny Pydynkowski, and Christopher Belisle. He held a special place in his heart, for his beloved niece, Chrissy Roberts of Rockport, MA, who was his loving caretaker through his many years battling cancer, and her husband, Keith.
Donny was a devoted friend to many, spreading love and generosity to all who truly knew him. He found great joy in sending cards for days of celebration, holidays, and valued friendships.
His good heart spread kindness and laughter everywhere he went. Sundays and holidays always brought freshly made pies, lobsters, and chowder just to bring smiles to others when he dropped by.
Donny's knowledge of the machine shop and trucking business was second to none. Whether he was finding connections for truck parts or passing along contacts to someone needing assistance, he would drop everything to help others.
The love and adoration of the wide circle of friends is a testament to the wonderful man he was. He will be deeply missed by many. He is now in God's loving hands and free of any pain.
