Donnal Page Obituary (1986 - 2025) - Gastonia, North Carolina

Donnal Keith Page, affectionately known as Donny, who was born on February 28, 1986, departed this life on April 4, 2025, at the age of 39. Donny was a free spirit who found his greatest joy under open skies. Whether he was casting a line into a quiet lake, setting up camp beneath a canopy of stars, or cruising on his scooter with the wind at his back, Donny was most at peace when surrounded by the beauty of the natural world. He embraced the simple pleasures of life, always finding wonder in moments many might overlook. More than anything, Donny was a fighter. He faced life with a quiet strength, meeting every challenge with determination and grace. Through hardships and triumphs, he lived fully and loved deeply. His presence was a gift, and his laughter—a comfort. He is now reunited with cherished family who went before him: his Grandmother and Grandfather Smith, his Grandmother and Grandfather Page, and a beloved uncle. Their arms are open to welcome him home. Donny leaves behind a family who adored him and will forever carry his memory in their hearts: his loving mother, Dorothy Smith; his girlfriend Anna, his devoted brother David "Adam" McGarity and wife Heather, along with their children Saoirse, Aodhán and KayLynn; his caring sister Amber Smith and husband Vern, and their children Nicholas, Kalene, and Abella. He is also mourned by Bill, Debbie, Angel, Gabriel and Makayla Ridge, as well as many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins who each held a special place in his heart. Donnal Keith Page's light remains in the lives he touched, the love he gave, and the memories he leaves behind. May we honor him by living with the same appreciation for nature, joy in simplicity, and strength in spirit that he showed us every day.
