 DONALD DOBBINS Donald Thomas Dobbins, 64, passed away May 10, 2012, in Las Vegas, due to complications following heart surgery. He was born in Oak Park, Ill., to Dennis "Jack" Dobbins Jr. and Mary Ellen Dobbins. He graduated from Indio High School in 1966. Don joined the U.S. Army in 1967, completed special training "overseas" in Fairbanks, Alaska, and returned to California upon his discharge in 1970. The adventure called life took him to Arizona, Illinois, and finally Las Vegas last year to enjoy his retirement. He loved bowling, golfing, and spending time with his family, especially if he had a coupon. He was preceded in death by his father and mother; and brother, Ronald. He is survived by his devoted wife, Sharon; his two children, son, Jack Preston of Austin, Texas; and daughter, Carol Denise Chinchilla of Anchorage, Alaska; brothers, Dennis, Gerald, Leonard and Danny; and sisters, Susan Slama, Kathleen Caudill, Cheryl Dobbins and Jacqueline Mueller. Don's wit and charm touched the lives of many. He never met a stranger and will be dearly missed by all. A celebration of life will be held at a later date in Palm Desert, Calif.
