MAUNULA- Mr. Donald Kenneth Maunula, age 81 years, passed away at Lakehead Manor on Thursday, December 31, 2015. Donald was born in Port Arthur on March 13, 1934, the son of Andrew and Tyyne Maunula and was a lifetime resident. As a young man he worked with his brothers in the bush camps and building the highway to the border. He later worked for many years with his father at the family Texaco on the Nipigon Highway.

A man of strong Christian Faith, Donald was a member of Bethel Lutheran Church for many years before becoming a member of F.E.L.M.
