Donnie R. Spurgeon

Donnie “Don” Spurgeon, 86, of Brownsburg, passed away peacefully on October 22, 2024. He was born on May 27, 1938 in Linton, Indiana. Don was the son of Wilbur and Henrietta Spurgeon. He graduated from Linton-Stockton High School, went on to become a business agent for the United Grocer Union and retired from Roadway Trucking several years later. In 1958, Don married the love of his life, Connie. They were happily married until she passed away in September of 2023. Don was a loving and devoted father, grandfather (Papaw) and great-grandfather. 

In his free time, Don enjoyed watching his western shows, sitting on the front porch waving to everyone that went by and rooting for his favorite sports teams – the Cardinals, Colts and IU. His most favorite hobby of all, though, was being with his family and watching his great-grandkids play sports. 

Don is survived by his children, Rhonda (Dan) Tucker and Brad (Kim) Spurgeon; his 4 grandchildren - Jeremy (Dana) Tucker, Josh (Lindsay) Tucker, Lyndsey (Nick) Cooper and Justin (Shelbi) Spurgeon; and his 8 great-grandchildren - Ashlyn Tucker, Alivia Tucker, Addie Tucker, Bennett Cooper, Griffin Cooper, Alayna Tucker, Hayden Spurgeon and Avery Spurgeon.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
