Don was born January 14, 1945, to James Crawford Singleton and Carrie Odell Boleyn Singleton in Adamsville, Tennessee. He proudly served in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam Conflict. Don worked as the service manager for several Ford dealerships. He loved fishing and was well known for the way he kept his yard. His greatest pleasure might have been his yard work. Every Saturday, without fail, he could be seen on his mower, making his yard look wonderful. For over 20 years, Don served as the Quartermaster for VFW Post 4904. He was proud to be a part of this fine organization. He was also a member of the Eldorendo Holiness Church, where he served as the song leader and Sunday School superintendent. Don’s many friends and loving family will greatly miss him.

Singleton (Tessa) of Bainbridge, Georgia; siblings, Connie Henson (Phil) of Olive Branch, Mississippi and Steve Singleton of Willis, Texas; and grandchildren, Madison McNeill, Madilyn McNeill, and Raina Singleton.
