We just learned of Don's passing this morning. Both Don & Mildred and the "kids" were a big part of our family. I used to love to hear the stories of my Mom's growing up years in New Milford from my Grandmother, "Aunt Alice". Don's family home and his Mom & Dad, Nana & Boppy, were some of my fondest memories of my childhood.
I am guessing Don is in heaven now reminiscing with his loved ones & maybe making some mischief once again:) Love & condolences to Mildred and family.

I grew up with this kind man & his parents. My mother considered him to be a brother. He was there for me so many times but especially when my Mom died. I will never forget him. My prayers are with you all.

Donald Tingley's grandson, Jeffrey.....has told me several stories about his Grandpa on various occasions. Although I didn't have the honor and privilege of ever meeting him, I feel blessed for getting to know him.....through Jeff's lovingly portrayal of one whom he has held so close to his heart.......his dear Grandpa. Mr. Tingley.....I salute you sir. I shall look forward to getting together....some day......and when that day comes......we'll have a few laughs about the good ole' days. May God bless you, and my thoughts and prayer will be with your family.

Dear Colehour Family & Mom Tingley,
I feel blessed to have known "Dad" & to have had time with him.... he was fun to be around especially when "he was up to something".... his laugh, smile, & the look in his eyes when he was "on the move" is one of the special things that always made me laugh - it was an honor to have known him!
May memories bring you all some comfort in the difficult days ahead. Our prayers of love & sypathy are with you now & always.

With deepest sympathy on the loss of your husband, father and grandfather. We have such wonderful memories of Grandpa Tingley, as he was fondly known on Fairway Lane. I can still picture him sitting in the rocker on the porch making fun of John putting up the Christmas lights. It was an honor to have known him.
