Donald James Dill Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Donald James Dill of Dominion passed away on Saturday, December 4, 2021. He was 59 years old. Donnie was born on September 20, 1962, in Easton, MD, the son of the late James and Elsie Dill. He attended Queen Anne County Schools. He is survived by his sisters, Cynthia S. Dill, and Deborah Dill Tindall and her husband Kenny. His beloved dog, Baby-J, is missing him very much. Donnie loved automobiles and worked at several service stations and car dealerships. He was especially fond of working at Western Auto and NAPA providing customer service and delivering parts. He enjoyed sharing his knowledge with his customers with his “old school” way of finding just the right parts that they needed. Detailing cars and bringing them back to life was an enjoyable challenge for him. He could make them shine and look new and he knew a lot of tricks of the trade to get the results he wanted. He found pleasure in visiting junk yards to find parts for his Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptors and took special pride in driving around in them. Following drag racing events was a delight too. Donnie was interested in watching wrestling and police shows on tv. Back in the day Donnie would use scanners to monitor the local law enforcement and fire departments; he was right there on top of what was going on. K-9 dogs were much admired, along with all law enforcement and first responder agencies. He thankfully recognized and honored first responders and fallen heroes with his own 911 tribute memorial and a collection of hundreds from police and fire departments all over the country by displaying them at local car shows and other events. A visitation with the family will be held on Friday, December 17, 2021from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM with the funeral service immediately following at 8:00 PM at Fellows, Helfenbein and Newnam Funeral Home located at 106 Shamrock Road, Chester, MD. The internment will be held privately at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Grasonville Volunteer Fire Department at 4128 Main Street, Grasonville, MD 21638.
