Don Blount, a beloved father, friend, and animal lover, passed away unexpectedly on September 10th. He was 53 years old. Don lived in Birmingham, Alabama, and shared his home with two of his three children, Madison and John, along with two cherished dogs. His other child, Austin, also held a close relationship with him. Don was deeply proud of his family and the life he built with them.
In light of his passing, his family faces the financial burden of memorial and cremation expenses, as there was no life insurance or burial policy in place. His loved ones have set up a fundraiser to support his memorial and cremation costs, with a goal of $10,000. Roxanne Blount, who organized the GoFundMe campaign, expressed her gratitude for any donations, whether monetary or through sharing the fundraiser link. She shared that any excess funds from the funeral expenses will be donated to charity, in collaboration with Don’s children.
On social media, many have shared heartfelt messages remembering Don. Roxanne Brooks wrote, "Ride on baby. I wouldn’t have this life and beautiful kids without you." Perry Blount, Lynne Shaw Walker, and Crystal Bruce were also among those who posted messages expressing their love and support.
As the community rallies around the family, they await final details from Lemley Funeral Home in Oneonta, Alabama, regarding the exact costs. In the meantime, Don’s family appreciates any form of support during this challenging time.
We extend our deepest sympathies to Don Blount’s family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.
