DONALD EVANS MALLOW
Don will be deeply missed by the love of his life and wife of 65 years, Elizabeth Mallow. He will be lovingly remembered by his children: Richard Mallow (Lucy), Craig Mallow (Tanis), Karen Gregorchuk (Perry), Robert Mallow (Kimberly); and his adoring grandchildren: Lauren, Michael (Izabela), Hailey (Alex), Courtney, Tracy, Wendy, and Nicole; his great-grandchildren: Aleksa, Mikayla, Addison, and Gavin; and by his nieces, Wendy Sheldon (Phil), and Sandy Wright (Paul).
Don was predeceased by his parents, Dr. William Mallow and Edith Mallow of Kamsack, Saskatchewan; and his nephew, Drew Lauder.
Don was devoted to his family. Many fond memories were made on family vacations, in particular cottage time in Whiteshell Provincial Park and Don passed that love of family time at the lake on to his children. Don and Elizabeth spent many joyous hours playing bridge with friends and frustrating hours trying to teach their children the intricacies of bidding. Don was known as well for his sharp mind and wicked dry wit and loved to tease those around him, especially unsuspecting strangers.
In later years, Don retired from his first career as a well-respected insurance executive to take on the his dream role of owning and running a family business with his wife, Elizabeth.
The family would like to extend heartfelt gratitude and admiration to the staff of both The Waverley and Tuxedo Villa who cared for Don with great kindness during his difficult struggle with Alzheimers.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Canada.

I'm so very sorry to learn of Don's passing and wish to pass on my condolences to Beth and the extended family. Although I've never met any of you, I feel a connection with the family, as I am now restoring the home of Dr. and Penny Mallow in Kamsack, Sask. It is heart-breaking to be doing this without the love of my life, my husband Bob, who cherished this home as much as I did; however, he died two days before Don. Beth and I have had many lovely discussions over the phone and I emailed her several photos. When she didn't respond, I became concerned, but had no way of locating her contact information. I would very much appreciate hearing from her or one of her sons or daughters. My contact info does not appear, but the funeral home can put us in touch. Sincerely, Carole Stoyand - Posted by: Carole Stoyand (friend of Beth) on: May 16, 2022
