Donald R. Nealon Memorial Scholarship Fund

This fund was established in July 1996 upon the accidental death of Don Nealon who, along with his family, moved to Wakefield in 1993. Don died of injuries sustained in a boating accident at the Point of Pines Yacht Club in Revere. He was a member of the Malden Eagles and the Irish-American Club of Malden. The fund was established by Don’s friends and family to honor the memory of a man who loved all children and who, in turn, was loved by all children who knew him. Donald Nealon’s widow moved from Wakefield to Canton in 1999.
