Donald Bert LeStourgeon
SAN ANTONIO — Donald Bert LeStourgeon was born on Oct. 25, 1937, and went to be with his Lord and “Best Friend” on Nov. 15, 2009.
He was born in Medina, Texas, in a little house on the river behind the Methodist Church, where he was a member. While attending Medina High School, he played football, basketball, baseball and excelled in all.

He is survived by his wife, Sandy; son, Kevin and wife, Colette, and their son, Tal; brother, Bruce and wife, Pat; stepsons, Duane and his wife, Ann, and Hart and his wife, Charla; nine grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; numerous nieces and nephews; and many, many friends.
