<div itemprop="description">BADER, DONALD Richard. <br> <br>On Wednesday, June 24, 2020, age 78, at Lakeshore General Hospital, Pte Claire, QC. <br> <br>Sadly missed by his daughter, Tara (Sylvain Vallieres), granddaughter Chloe, who thinks her Grandpa is the funniest man she knows, sister Linda (Don Chapman) of Markham, brother Terry of Vancouver. Also by his former wife Coco, always united in friendship. Loving uncle to Stephanie and Craig Chapman. He was the son of the late Robert (Bob) and Alma Bader of Dorval. <br> <br>As a singer/songwriter, on guitar and keyboard, he performed as Don Richards and was a well-known entertainer on the West Island for most of his life, sharing music and laughter with all whom he met. He loved meeting people, was quick with a quip, unfailingly generous, and always tried to see the good in everyone. After his family, friendships new and old were of prime importance and Don still retained a tight group of friends first met in his youth. <br> <br>Our warmest thanks to the medical staff in ICU for their compassion, knowledge and unfailing care. We are forever grateful he wasn't alone when we couldn't be with him. <br> <br> <br>LIVE STREAMING: http://distantlink.com/dlm5.html <br></div>
