Donald W. Favry, 83, of Marlborough, husband of Lindalee (Fritsch) Favry, passed away peacefully on Friday, May 10, 2024, after a brief illness.
Born in Hartford, CT, on June 3, 1940, to Walter Favry and Isabelle Frances Favry, Don grew up in Wethersfield where he graduated from Wethersfield High School with his future wife. After moving to Marlborough in 1965, Don became the owner of M & L Landscaping and later the Glastonbury Fish Market. He also served as Marlborough’s animal control officer for twenty years.
An avid outdoorsman, Don was a past member of the East Glastonbury Fish and Game Club and the New England Field Trial Association. He raised championship hunting dogs as the owner of London Kennels, which inspired him to purchase the Millstream Hunting Preserve in 1996. There he was proud to offer a premier sporting and bird hunting experience, accessible to people of all ages and abilities.
In addition to his wife, Don is survived by three daughters: Michele Lampert and her husband Jonathan, Leahbeth Lewandowski and her husband Dan, and Melissa Abbotts; five grandchildren: Caitlyn and Melinda Lampert, Alexis and Jessica Abbotts, and Daved Lewandowski; several brothers and sisters-in law, as well as cherished nieces, nephews, and cousins. He was predeceased by his parents; his brother, Robert Favry; his sister, Frances Ann Falk; and his stepmother, Virginia Favry.
A private graveside service will be held in Marlborough Cemetery. Memorial donations may be made to St Jude Children’s Research Hospital, an organization to which he regularly donated. https://www.stjude.org/donate/donate-to-st-jude.html
