Donald Biddle

Donald Edgar Biddle, 92, of Houghton Lake, died Nov. 25, 2024, with his family by his side, at Sparrow Hospital, Lansing. He was born Nov. 20, 1932, in Flint, to Russell Biddle and Mary (Hazen) Ross. He grew up in Flint and worked for the City of Flint Department of Public Works. Mr. Biddle moved to the Houghton Lake area after retirement. He was an avid automobile enthusiast and classic car club member. He enjoyed many years racing cars as a young man with his brother and, later in life, with his son. If he wasn’t working on a car project, he was probably talking about one. Up until his last days, he enjoyed working with his son on their shared love of classic cars, doing what he loved most. He is survived by his children, Colleen (Dan) Pichiotino of Linden, Denise (Dennis) Sheridan of Flushing, Sherry (Kurt) Krieger of Grand Blanc and Donald (Jennifer) Biddle II of Sunfield; grandchildren, Matthew Meek, Chelsea Duke, Marissa Sheridan, Brian Sheridan, Lauren Tolfree, Olivia Krieger and Brooke Biddle; three great-grandchildren; brother, Clyde Biddle; and and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Russell Biddle; mother, Mary Ross; brothers, Samuel Biddle, James Biddle and Russell Biddle; and sisters, Judy Biddle and Mary Lou Roy. Honoring his wishes, cremation will take place and a private service will be held at a later date. Memorial contributions may be made to the Rotary Club of Houghton Lake, P.O. Box 323, Houghton Lake, MI 48629, where a memorial trophy will be given in honor of Mr. Biddle for the club’s Pumpkin Run Car Cruise and and Car Show.
