Donald Nellis, age 57, of Gloversville, NY, passed away at his home on Monday, July 15, 2024.
Born on August 30, 1966, in Derby, CT, he was the son of the late David and Barbara (Richtmyer) Nellis.
Known for his compassionate spirit and love for dogs, Donald was a self-employed dog groomer who brought joy and professional care to countless canine companions through his business, All Breed Grooming, in New Britian, CT. While in New Britain, owned and operated Buffalo productions. Producing and acting in plays, then moved to Gloversville, New York with All breed grooming. Donald retired around 2015 and was breeding Boxers.
We'll miss you Don! Your heart was big, so it's no wonder you worked with animals. Your sense of humour was an ice breaker whenever there was tension.

You will be remembered at our 40th reunion Oct 25 2025, on the memorial table. Wherever we go after this world, I'm sure you're surrounded by many happy canines. Peace.
