Donald Scott McLean passed away on July 26, 2017.
Loving husband, father, grandfather and friend, he will be remembered by all who knew him as a man of great integrity, humor and kindness. Don was born and raised on May 18, 1033, in Brooklyn, N.Y. He graduated from The Stony Brook School, Stony Brook, N.Y. He served in Korea with the U.S. Army and he received an honorable discharge.
