He was born in Washington, PA, to the late Margaret E. and Thomas Noyes Donaldson. He is survived by his sister, Margaret L. Emerson of Spencer, MA. He was preceded in death by his brother, John K. Donaldson.

Tom graduated from Warren Area High School and received his Bachelor of Science degree from Penn State.

Tom was an avid sports fan, especially of Penn State and Charlotte teams. He was a holder of Panther season tickets and attended every game he could. Tom loved the beach and had a condo at Pine Knoll Shores, where he loved to spend time just hanging out with friends or fishing.

He was a very sociable person and made friends everywhere he went. They rallied around him through his final illness and made it possible for him to remain at home.

There are no calling hours. A celebration of life will be held at a later time once arrangements and location are decided.
