Mr. Donald Robert MacDonald was born in Saint John on May 3, 1943, he was the son of the late Robert and Myrtle (Anderson) MacDonald. Don was the owner of Don’s Used Cars and Auto Parts since 1967. Cars were his passion and you might say that he “ate, breathed and slept” all things car related. He could often be found at the Demolition Derby in Riverglade towing the cars in from the track or at one of the auctions in Moncton looking for his next great bargain. Don loved to go for drives and he hadn’t found a weather system that could hold him up. “Midnight Motors”, as he was often referred to, was always on the go.
