Hoard, Donald Wayne, 62, passed away on October 13th, 2018. Don was born in Pontiac, MI, on June 29th, 1956. He was adopted at age 3 to parents Margaret Kathryn Smith and Elwyn Edgar Hoard. He moved to Klamath in 1990 and became an important part of our family. He was the most loving, caring man, who looked forward to spending as much time as he could with his family. He worked many jobs but spent several years cooking in restaurants. When he fell on tough times, he persevered through and never gave up. He was a very accepting member of our family, he never judged and was there for us no matter what. He loved his grandchildren and treasured the time he spent with them. He was the strongest man that I knew, and he will be forever missed. He is survived by his daughters Tammy Gillespie and Jennifer Pambianco; his grandchildren, Cheyanna Begley, Cameron Pambianco, and Preston Gillespie. Other family members include Ryan Davis, Dennis Gillespie, Cindy Palomino, Patricia Davis, Nicolas Davis, and special family friends including Beverly Partridge and Mindy Brady, who were always there for him and he loved dearly.
