(Published in) The Bryan-College Station Eagle (on) February 56, 2014
Jensen, Donald
September 1, 1932 – February 4, 2014
Donald Jensen passed away on February 4, 2014 surrounded by his family. A visitation
for friends and family will be held from 5:00-8:00 pm, Friday, February 7 at Callaway-
Jones Funeral Home, 3001 South College Ave, Bryan, Texas.
Don was born on September 1, 1932 in McKeesport, PA to Elizabeth and Vincent
Jensen. He was a man that always valued hard work starting from his early jobs as a
paperboy and gas station attendant to later becoming a teacher, and working at the
National Science Foundation and the Atomic Energy Commission. He enlisted in the
United States Navy in 1952 at the age of 20 and served his country proudly for over 39
years, retiring as a Senior Chief Petty Officer in 1991. He had enlisted as a Boatswain’s
Mate and finalized his career as Flight Director on the USS Lexington, where he became
a plank owner during the Korean War. He later became a dedicated member of the
American Legion Post #159. As an entrepreneur, he started a real estate business that
he grew and passed on to his sons all the while earning many degrees starting at the
University of Ohio and ending at TAMU.
Don always loved meeting new people but especially enjoyed time shared with his large
family. He is proceeded in death by his parents Elizabeth Jensen Vukovcan and Vincent
Jensen, sister and brother-in-law, Claire and Bucky Painter, and great grandson Garrett
Haney. He is survived by his sister and brother-in-law, Janice and Robert Swartz as well
as his 9 children, Connie Janac, Barbara Hulsey, Susan Jimerson, Jo Jensen, Robert
Jensen, James Jensen, Erik Jensen, Andrew Jensen, Karina Zugaj and their spouses
and his companion, Wilma Green. He was the proud grandfather of 13 grandchildren,
and 15 great-grandchildren. He will be sorely missed; even the tricks he would play on
his children, which will continue to be passed down to future generations in his memory.
The family would like to thank Brazos Valley Hospice for their support during this difficult
time. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations may be made to the American
Legion Post 159, 101 Waco Street, Bryan, 77801 or Hospice Brazos Valley, 502 W.
26th Street, Bryan, 77803.
