United States Air Force Veteran Donald Coleman Corum, Sr., 82, of Madisonville, KY was called to Heaven surrounded by his family on Sunday, March 15, 2020 at Baptist Health Madisonville. As he took his last breath he was listening to his favorite song, Shout To The Lord.

He was born on July 29, 1937 to the late Jewell McDowell Williams and James Coleman Corum. In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by his brother, John T. Corum.

Don shared his testimony when he could and encouraged others to have a relationship with Jesus.
