Donald A. Sauter

Of Bethel Park, age 90, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, February 18, 2026;  beloved husband of 66 years to Martha Sauter; loving father of Todd ( Donna) Sauter and Judy (Scott) Krieger; adored Pappap of  Lauren (Nick Miskanic) Sauter, Kristen (Cody) Morgan, Ryan (Isabelle) Krieger and Kevin (Emily) Krieger; great Pappap of Avery Morgan and Collins Krieger; uncle of Shelley Vakil; preceded in death  by his parents; Albert and Jessie Sauter, his sister; Barbara McFarland and his nephew, David McFarland.

Don was a proud Army veteran who served in Germany in the 1950s. After returning home, he carried on his family legacy by taking over his father’s business, Sauter’s Garage on Banksville Road, where he devoted many decades before retiring. In retirement, Don continued to serve his community, working part‑time at Paul Henney Funeral Home for 16 meaningful years.

A man of many talents, Don found joy in woodworking—especially marquetry—along with camping, golfing, landscaping, and flying. He was known for his skillful craftsmanship and his determination, faithfully walking the 3½‑mile neighborhood loop almost every day.

Above all, Don cherished traveling with his loving wife, family, and friends. His adventures took him around the world, creating memories he held dear. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

Family and friends will be received Sunday, February 22nd from 2-4 & 6-8 PM at Paul Henney Cremation & Funeral Tributes, 5570 Library Rd., Bethel Park where services will be held Monday, February 23rd, at 11 AM.  Burial will follow at Forest Lawn Gardens, McMurray, PA.  In his memory donations can be made to John McMillan Presbyterian Church, 875 Clifton Rd., Bethel Park where he was longtime member.
