Don L. Titcombe

Don L. Titcombe, passed away unexpectedly on March 24, 2025, at the age of 76. Born on January 6, 1949, in Dayton, he dedicated over 30 years to a rewarding career as a truck driver, traversing the country alongside his beloved wife, Joyce. Their partnership extended beyond the home and into their professional lives, as he took the time to teach Joyce how to drive the truck, sharing not only the road but many cherished memories.

Don was known for his vibrant personality, always the jokester and a source of joy for those around him. His ability to sense when someone was feeling down allowed him to lift their spirits in a way that few could. He was devoted to his family, ensuring that love and laughter filled their lives.

In addition to his driving career, Don was a beloved member of Alcoholics Anonymous for 37 years, where he forged many lifelong friendships and positively impacted the lives of others. His creativity and handiwork were evident in his hobbies; he often spent his time tinkering and was skilled with his hands, crafting delightful leather creations including bracelets, watch bands, and belts. His willingness to lend a helping hand made him a treasured friend and neighbor. Don proudly served in the United States Navy during the Vietnam War.

Don is survived by his loving wife of 40 years, Joyce Titcombe, and their children: Shannon (Darel) Martin, Brenda (Randy) Titcombe, Guy (Pauletta) Titcombe, and David Titcombe. He leaves behind several grandchildren including Heather (Jake), Megan (Seth), Morgan (Kasey), and Nick and great-grandchildren, Avery, Aspyn, Riley, and Mylah who brought him immense joy. Also mourning his passing are his brothers, Raymond Titcombe and John Titcombe, as well as his beloved cats, Boo Boo, Pumpkin, Squeaky Bear, Tinker, Sweetie, Tori, and Sunshine.

He was preceded in death by his father, Ray Titcombe, his mother, Clara Fiste, and his sister-in-law, Patty Titcombe.
