Donald Conrad Kaminski, of Fairfield Glade, Tennessee, joined his Lord and Savior in heaven
on Saturday, December 7, 2019.
Don was born June 17, 1932, in Pennsylvania, to Conrad and Genevieve. As children raised
during The Great Depression in Lakeland, Florida, Don and his sister Jeanne learned the value of
hard work and perseverance from their dedicated mother.
As a young man with great love for his country and devout patriotism, Don served fearlessly in
the Korean War, as a United States Marine. After an Honorable Discharge from the Marine Corp,
Don earned degrees in Guidance and Psychology as a National Honor Society member. He then
served as Vice-President of WHEELHOUSE training center for adults with disabilities, where he
counseled persons with disabilities.
As a retired Veteran, Don continued a life of service and dedication to his faith, through
volunteering at his local church, giving four dogs a loving home (Snickers, Bear, Sweetie, and
Luna), and instilling the greatest of his values and love in his great granddaughter.
Don will be remembered and greatly missed by his loving wife, Julie Moorefield-Kaminski of
Fairfield Glades, TN, his sister Jeanne Kaminski Teal and niece Eva DeAnne Teal of Lakeland,
FL, and his great granddaughter and love of his life, Nevaeh Lynn Craighead of Crossville, TN.
Don is also survived by a son and daughter, three step-daughters, a step-son, grandchildren, great
grandchildren, many life-long friends, and his dinner club friends from Fairfield Glades.
A celebration of Don's life will be held at a later date.
