Donald Paul Alexander, born on August 20, 1933, in Richmond, Virginia, passed away peacefully on March 10, 2026, at the age of 92. He was a cherished brother, uncle, stepfather, and friend, whose presence will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Donald dedicated many years of his life to his career as an area manager for Hoffman Beverage Company, where he earned the respect of his colleagues through his hard work and commitment. With patriotism being a part of his life, he served honorably in the US Naval Reserve. Beyond his professional life, he found great joy in the outdoors, particularly in deer and rabbit hunting, as well as offshore and lake fishing. These pursuits reflected his love for nature and the tranquility he found in its embrace.

A man of faith, Donald attended Bethlehem Christian Church and Grace Outreach Church, where he nurtured his spiritual life and formed lasting bonds with fellow congregants. He was also a proud member of Berkley Masonic Lodge #167 and the Suffolk Shrine Club, reflecting his dedication to community and service.

Donald was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Benson Joseph Alexander Sr. and Lynette Andrews Alexander; his devoted wife, Linda Speight Alexander; his brothers, Douglas Alexander Sr. and Robert T. Alexander; and his sister, Marie A. Sarber. His memory will be lovingly carried forward by his surviving brother, Benson J. Alexander Jr. and sister-in-law, Hilda; numerous nieces and nephews; his stepson, Bryan Holland; and step-grandchildren, Bryce and Grayson. He is also fondly remembered by his special friends and neighbors, Ernie Curle Jr. and Monique Eley.
