Donald Arthur Sayler
November 10,1945-October 29, 2025
Donald Arthur Sayler, loving father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, returned to his heavenly father and reunited with his beloved wife, Doneva Faye Sayler, on Wednesday October 29, 2025. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by family and loved ones. Don was the devoted patriarch of the family, and his passing has left a large hole in the hearts of all who knew him. Don and Doneva shared a beautiful life, marrying on April 3, 1966. Their enduring love and commitment served as a wonderful example to their family. Don was known for his kind soul and his ready wit. He found simple joy in taking his car for a long drive, often exploring the open road just for the pleasure of it. He had a gift for conversation and always had a story to tell, ensuring that no one ever left his presence without a smile. His greatest joy came from his family. He cherished his role as Grandpa and Great-Grandpa, and his presence brought warmth and humor. Don is preceded in death by his wife, Doneva Faye Sayler; his daughter, Debbie Smedley (Sayler); and his granddaughter, Nicole Sayler. He is survived by his son, Doug Sayler, and his daughter, DeeAnn Dixon (Jerry). He was a proud grandfather to Colby (Maddi) Sayler, Jayla Sayler, Jesse (Angela) Sayler, Alec Dixon, BreeAnna Dixon, Eric Ortion (Cydney), Lucas Smedley, and Jaxon Smedley. He was also blessed with two great-grandchildren, Aiden Joe Sanchez and Charley Beck Sayler. In lieu of flowers, the family is humbly asking for donations to cover the costs of his funeral expenses. Donations can be made in Don's name at D.L. Evans bank in Burley, Idaho. Church services to be announced at a later date.
