Patrick “Pat” Allen McDonald passed away peacefully in his home on January 16th, 2025 at 71 years old. He was proudly born and raised in Crown Point, only leaving the area for a short stint. He loved anything meticulous such as building models -even ships inside bottles, rebuilding old trucks, soaking up historical knowledge, and riding his Harley Davidson. Pat held many jobs in his lifetime including a semi-driver, horse tender and lastly a Foreman for Davey Tree as an arborist, climbing and trimming many areas of Crown Point.
He is survived by his daughter Carrie (Tracey) Bradley and son, Justin McDonald. He has four grandchildren; Austin McDonald, and Mykenna, Kylee, and Connor Kemling. He also has two great-granddaughters, Lennon and Josette Dazzio. He is also survived by his sister Lyn McDonald (wife, Ellen Valentine) McKensie, niece Tania (Kevin) Tharp, and great-niece Allison.
He is preceded in death by his parents Lester McDonald and Phyllis Aubin, and brother Michael McDonald.
