It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Donald Alexander Mullin, on March 10, 2017, in Ottawa, Ontario. Raised in London, Ontario, Don was the youngest of five children. A devoted husband, father and grandfather, Don spent much of his life travelling the world, but always shone brightest when surrounded by family. He was well respected in all he did, both during his service with the Canadian Armed Forces and in his civilian career following his release from service. Don is survived by his adoring wife and partner in life of 34 years, Johanna (ne Furlong); loving children Samuel (Miranda), Holly (Ian), and Vanessa; beloved grandchild Elliot; and, brother Ian and sister Barbara (Rick) and his loving sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews and numerous other relatives.

Predeceased by his parents Samuel and Annie Aileen Mullin, and brothers Ken and Michael (Leticia.)

Donald proudly served with the Canadian Armed Forces for 23 years, retiring at the rank of Warrant Officer. He also volunteered with local fire departments.

A visitation will be held at Beechwood, Funeral, Cemetery and Cremation Services, 280 Beechwood Avenue, Ottawa, on Thursday, March 16th, 2017 from 5 to 8 pm, where family will be greeting friends, relatives and colleagues. A Memorial service will take place on Saturday, March 18th, 2017 at 10 am followed by interment in The National Military Cemetery of Canada, located at Beechwood Cemetery.
