Wawro, Dorland (Don) Wesley

December 3, 2025

Dorland (Don) Wesley Wawro

It is with great love and sadness that we announce the passing of Dorland (Don) Wesley Wawro on December 3, 2025 at the age of 92 of natural causes in his home, just the way he wanted to go.

He leaves behind his daughter Kim Searow; his sister and brother-in-law Sandra (Dennis) Cocks; nephew Wesley Cocks; niece Naomi (Tony) Schellenberg, children Lauren and Jasper; sister-in-law Deb Buss Knighten; niece Brandy; niece Barb (Chris) Alfaro, son Daniel; and many dear cousins and friends.

Don also leaves behind at least 92 golf hats, almost as many golf shirts and several sets of clubs. He spent many happy years, wintering and golfing in Arizona and golfing at the Regina Royal Golf Club in the summer. He always wanted to be a NASCAR driver (he even tried it once!)

We will greatly miss his loyalty, kindness, gentleness, generosity and humour.

A Memorial Service will be held on Sunday, February 15, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. in the Royal Regina Golf Club, 5401 – 11th Avenue, Regina, SK. Livestream of the service will be available at https://pwlive.ca/don-wawro. Flowers gratefully declined. Donations in Don’s memory may be made to a charity of your choice.

Don was both magical and mischievous, often full of joy and wonder. A big kid with a big heart, his love of golf and his knack for finding golf balls will never be forgotten. Number 3 golf balls will always hold a special place in my heart. Much love to the family and all who loved him. My heart is with you. <3

Kim, Sandra and Dennis, we were sad to learn that Dorland has passed away. He was a very fine person, a true gentleman in every sense, and we enjoyed seeing him whenever we had the opportunity, including golfing with Bob and Dennis, and dining together in many places over the years. He was always so kind and genuinely happy to be among friends and family. We offer our sincere condolences to all your family who will miss him very much. May your many great memories of time together sustain you at this sad time. Cousin Bob and Thelma Hitchen

It was my pleasure to share time and laughter with Don on golf courses, happy hours, dances, the hot tub. His smiling face will remain with me always. He was a true gentleman and friend. My last phone call with Don was the night this year that his Saskatchewan Roughriders beat B.C. He was gloating a little….Deepest condolences Sandra, Dennis, Kim and family. Love Marie
