Donald Monroe "Donnie" Windsor, Jr., 63, of New Church, VA, passed away Monday, November 10, 2025. Born March 19, 1962 in Crisfield, MD and raised in Marion Station, MD, he was the son of the late Donald Monroe Windsor, Sr. and Constance Faye "Connie" Hart and stepson of the late Wayne Hart.
After graduating from Crisfield High School, Donnie enlisted in the United States Army, where he proudly served his country. Following his honorable discharge, he returned home and began what would become a lifelong career in mechanics, specializing in small engine repair. Known for his natural talent and determination, Donnie could fix just about anything. He loved to tinker and was always up for a new project – whether it was a carpentry repair, a maintenance job, or fine-tuning an engine. He enjoyed building model cars and could never resist an auction followed by an afternoon 'tinkering' with Wayne in the back yard.
In addition to his parents and stepfather, Donnie was predeceased by the love of his life, Diana Brown Windsor, with whom he is now happily reunited. He is survived by his sister – who he never called by name, only "Sister" – Terri Lynn Kelly and her husband, Philip; children, Chuck Ward and his wife, Carol, Sean Ward, Donald Windsor III and his wife, Brenda, David Windsor and his wife, Amber, and Jessica Fazekas and her husband, David; and stepbrother and sister, Eric Hart and Ginger Hart Villanueva and special cousin, Steve Windsor and his wife, Lynn, as well as their families; and several grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and extended family. He was also predeceased by his sister-in-law, Sheryl Lewis.
Donnie's family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the nurses and staff of Shore Health and Rehabilitation Center in Parksley, VA, for their kindness, compassion, and care during his time there.
Funeral services will be conducted from the graveside at Downing's Cemetery, in Oak Hall, VA, on Thursday, November 13, 2025 at 1:00 p.m.
Contributions in Donnie's memory may be made to the Eastern Shore SPCA, P.O. Box 164, Onley, VA 23418 (www.shorespca.com).
