Donald Eugene Tuttle, the son of Arthur and Elna (Flint) Tuttle, was born in Marquette on Sept. 24, 1925, and passed away in Aurora on June 8, 2022, at the age of 96. Don graduated from Marquette High School in 1942. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II, being stationed in the Aleutian Islands. Don was honorably discharged on June 1, 1946. Don married the love of his life, Daisy Catherine Davison, on July 4, 1948. Following their marriage they made their home in Marquette. Don worked for the telephone company and then was the manager of the Co-op Elevator in Marquette for many years. After 73 years of marriage, Daisy passed away on March 21, 2019. Don served on the Marquette school and church boards. He was a member of the Lions Club and American Legion. He took great joy and had a great love for his family and loved the friends and neighbors in Marquette. He was never at a loss for words and knew no strangers, always ready to strike up a conversation with anyone. He will be missed by all those who knew him and loved him. Those who remain to cherish his memory are his two daughters, Pamela K. (Gil) Nissen of Marquette and Vicki L. (Doug) Jensen of Marquette; four grandchildren, Kelly (Jason) Swantek of Genoa, Cory (Matt) McGrew of Lincoln, Brent (Susan) Jensen of Bellevue and Brandi (Jeff) Hansen of Hampton; 18 great-grandchildren; three great-great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
