Obituary of Donald Lang
LANG, Donald
The world lost a great mind when Donald Lang, PhD, Lt. Cdr. (ret’d) died suddenly October 9th, 2024. He leaves behind his wife Betty of 63 years, his children Stephen and Mia, and many other beloved relatives, friends and colleagues. Over his 87 years, he lived a full life, including his early years as a radio announcer in Newfoundland, a naval career that included teaching at the Canadian military colleges, a sessional instructor at the University of Victoria, and in his later years, an author of several books that encompassed his passion for values, leadership, golf and philosophy. Dr. Lang will be remembered fondly by his many students whom he inspired to seek truth and a better the world. An avid gardener, he created an oasis from sand; he believed that with the right nurturing, everything can grow. As such, in lieu of flowers, in his memory, we ask that you consider planting a tree, or, supporting childhood literacy/education. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
In Loving Memory
Donald Lang
