Donald Allan Semeyn Sr., age 90 of Reed City, passed away surrounded by family on Sunday, December 28, 2025. 

He was born on March 22, 1935, in Grand Rapids, son of Everett and Esther Semeyn.  He married Carol Schroeder in 2010.  Following his service in the U.S. Navy, Don followed in his father's footsteps as a plumber until the late 80’s.  He then purchased a 9-hole golf course, Spring Valley, and transformed it into 18 holes.  Don managed the course up until his passing.  Don was very thankful for a lifelong friend, who was more like family than an employee, Eddie Peffer.  Ed is the grounds supervisor and is very dedicated to Don and the course.  Don was a Mason belonging to the Luther-Lakes lodge.  He also was a member of the Grand Rapids Shriners as well as to the El Hajj and Jesters chapters.  Additionally, he was a member of the Big Rapids Elks, Big Rapids Eagles, as well as the Reed City Moose. 

Don is survived by his wife Carol Semeyn, grandson Spencer Semeyn, step-children Paula (Lee) Garver & Stephanie (Eddie) Lartigue Sr.  He had many additional beloved step-grandchildren, Kaci Garver (Larry VanBuren), Tayler Garver (Chase Russel), Elexis Lartigue (Chad Plummer), Elecia Lartigue (Josh Miller) & Eddie Lartigue Jr. He had one step-great grandchild, Kai Plummer. 

Don was preceded in death by his children, Tracy Lynne Semeyn & Donald Allan Semeyn Jr.
