Donald Wayne George was born on November 22, 1962, in Beaumont, Texas, to Edward George and Katherine George. He accepted the Lord as his personal savior and was christened at an early age. He graduated from Hebert High School and enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, serving from 1983 to 1990 with an honorable discharge. Afterward, he attended Lamar University, where he was on the Dean's list for two years and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice in 1995. He held various state jobs, including positions with Beaumont ISD, juvenile probation, and the parole division, where he retired.

Donald loved God, football, animals, movies, food, and his peace and quiet. He had a humorous demeanor that brought joy regardless of the situation. His smile was infectious, and he was known for his punctuality and high expectations ("Mr. Know-It-All"). He always listened intently and provided logical advice.

He later married Miriam Elady-Cole on April 26, 1996. He was preceded in death by his parents—Edward George and Katherine George—and his brother, Daryl George. Donald is survived by his wife, Miriam George; his daughter, Tornyia Mornya; bonus children Gladys and Albert Mornya (son-in-law) in Beaumont, Texas, and Alford Gorvie in Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa. He also leaves behind eight grandchildren at home and abroad, a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, and many other relatives and dear friends.

Donald's love for food and cars was among his most memorable qualities. He was a caring husband, father, and grandfather. Donald peacefully transitioned into eternal life on Thursday, June 27, 2024, at home surrounded by loved ones.
