Don Foucault Obituary
Dec. 19, 1939 ~ Jan. 26, 2022
Donald Kenneth Foucault "Don", was born Dec. 19, 1939.
On Jan. 26th 2022, this ugly thing they call Dementia took my best friend and love of my life. I was lucky to have him 42 years.
He was a Vietnam War Veteran with the 101st Airborne. He was a member of the American Legion for 52 years and recently the VFW. He was Post Commander for the American Legion for two years until we moved to Flaming Gorge. Here he became a general contractor until the disease made him slow down.
He boated, camped, hunted and fished. He bought a side by side and we became snowbirds in 2013. We wintered in Parker, Arizona until January of 2021 where the disease made it impossible to continue.
He is survived by his wife Jane, brother Jack (June) Foucault, three step kids Angela (Brad) Thompson, Sean (Patti) Hession and Stephanie Jacobsen (Jeff Lyons) along with 12 beautiful grand kids! Thank you, family, for all your support!
His wishes were to be cremated and have a graveside service with a military honor 21-gun salute. Services to be at a later date.
