On June 11, 2021, Don F Gaston was called home to be with the Lord. He was met by his wife of 67 years, Paula, who had passed exactly two months prior. Born and raised in Nacogdoches, Texas, he fell in love with Paula at the tender age of fourteen. They were married in Nacogdoches on December 21, 1953, at the age of nineteen. Don and Paula began their family in Houston, and moved to Greenwich, CT in 1967. There, they resided in that very same house for 54 years, until both their deaths. Called simply “Don” by his eight grandchildren, he was the epitome of a Southern Gentleman. He is survived by his three children; Paul Gaston (Dana), Donna Carpenter, Patricia Burt (Neville); eight grandchildren: Peter Gaston (Jordan), John Gaston (Kathryn), Sarah McCarty (Matt), George, Taylor and Timi Carpenter, Charlie Burt (Amy) and Harry Burt; as well as three great-grandchildren: Will, Coulter, and Wren Gaston. A Celebration of Life will be held at The Round Hill Community Church, 395 Round Hill Road, Greenwich, CT on June 21, 2021 at 2pm . In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Round Hill Community Church. www.roundhillcommunitychurch.
