Donald Lee Warn

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the unexpected passing of Donald L. Warn, who left us on August 17, 2025, at the age of 81.

Donald was born on December 16, 1943, in Toledo, Ohio to George and Virginia Warn. He grew up in Toledo, where he graduated from Rogers High School before joining the US Navy and serving in photographic intelligence during the Vietnam War.  

Donald dedicated much of his life working for Caterpillar, where he retired after 30 years of dedicated service. He loved spending time as an armature HAM radio operator and searching the internet for interesting news articles to share with friends and family.

Donald was a good provider, always taking care of his family. He is survived by his wife Bonnie, daughter Michelle, son Donald and his wife Julia; grandchildren: Alyssa, Kristen and Katrina; great-grandchildren: Aubrei, Makenzie, Anthony, Jasper, Lilly and Penelope; and sisters, Diana and Nancy, who will forever cherish his memory. He was preceded in death by his mother and father, and brother Larry.
