Donald Lawrence Tillman

Donald Lawrence Tillman “Bubba” passed away suddenly on Friday, July 10th, 2026.

Bubba is preceded in death by both parents, Willie and Don Tillman; sister, Debbie Tillman; brother, Josh Tillman; son, Tyler Menke; both sets of grandparents; cousins, and a niece.

Friends and family left to cherish his memories are his son, Donny Tillman (Cara); his daughter, Jenna (Trip) Hallman; his grands, Blais, Lil Donny, Jaxon, Carlie, and Carsyn; too many close friends and family to mention; sister Mendy (Jeff) Shackelford; sister-in-law Chrissy Tillman; lots of nieces.

Bubba was a big guy with an even bigger heart. He was all about doing for others. He was a people person. He always knew a guy if you needed someone for anything. He knew someone!

The family would like to thank Bubba’s work family: Scottie, Johnny, Willie, Brett, and anyone else before. Too many special friends to mention.

Bubba looked forward to helping with his church’s Blessing Boxes every year around Thanksgiving, so in lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Glory Church Blessing Box Fund.

Family will receive friends on Saturday, July 18, 2026 from 4-7pm at Glory Church at Dante, with a Celebration of Life Service to begin at 7pm, officiated by Pastor Lee Murphy.

Mynatt Funeral Home Powell Chapel is honored to be serving the family of Donald Tillman.
