Nick was born on September 19, 1986, in Monroe, Louisiana, and unexpectedly passed away on April 9, 2026. He is preceded in death by his father, Francis Donald; his son, Brayden Donald; and his brother, Keith Donald. He was also preceded in death by his father-in-law, Brad Day; his maternal grandparents, Jimmie and Cliff Titcomb; and his paternal grandparents, Edna and Lavelle Donald.
Nick had a deep love for life and embraced every experience it had to offer. He was a devoted father who poured his heart into his children. Nick could often be found at countless baseball games, cheering on not only his own boys but entire teams of young athletes. Over the last year, he proudly served as the announcer for Choudrant High School baseball games, bringing energy and excitement as he “hyped up” the team and crowd alike.
He also had a lifelong love for music. Whether attending concerts or playing the drums in worship, music was woven into the fabric of who he was. He had a gift for friendship and was blessed with many lifelong friends—from his high school years, church family, coworkers, and his lively softball family from Vicious and Delicious and the broader softball community.
Above all, Nick was a good and faithful servant who loved the Lord. He never missed an opportunity to encourage others, share his faith, and point people toward Christ. While his earthly presence will be deeply missed, his family and friends find comfort in knowing he is rejoicing in the presence of the Lord.
Nick, Jordan, and the children shared a love for making memories together through travel. Whether visiting the beach, attending sporting events, or exploring new cities, their adventures were a treasured part of their lives.
He is survived by his loving wife, Jordan Donald, and their three children, Jase, Tucker, and Willow Donald. He is also survived by his mother, Martha Gail Donald; his loving aunt, Vivian Sherrie Carr; his precious mother-in-law, Sabrina Day; and his brother-in-law, Edwin Day (Kaitlyn and children). He is further survived by his siblings, Matt Averette (Kellie), Natalie Millien, Karen Fallo (Jeff), and Stevie Donald (Jessica), along with numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.
