Donald (Don) Raymond Cardinal

Born on October 23, 1944 in Columbia Heights, Minnesota
Departed November 16, 2022 in Palm Bay, Florida

Donald (Don) Raymond Cardinal passed away on Wednesday the 16th day of November 2022 at the age of 78.

Don lived most of his life in Minnesota and was an avid fisherman and hunter. In 2003 Don and his wife of 53 years, Elizabeth, retired to Florida, where their kids shortly followed. Don picked up golfing in Florida and participated in a few tournaments. He also played bingo weekly and enjoyed getting to know the other senior citizens in the area.

Don is survived by his wife Elizabeth; his daughter Kelly and her husband LeNaire Hunt; his daughter Rebecca Cardinal and her fiance Robert Di Benedetto; his four grandchildren Kala, Hailey, Samuel and Adalyn and two bonus grandchildren Matthew and Cassandra; along with one great grandchild Richard. He is also survived by his sisters Rosemary and Donna; his brothers Robert and James.

Don’s greatest love of all was his family and friends and spending as much time with them as he could. Don will be greatly missed by all.
