It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Aether Donavan, who was born on June 18, 2011, in Winchendon, Massachusetts. Aether tragically lost his life on October 28, 2025, at the young age of 14.

Aether was the beloved child of Gary and Dale Donavan. He had no children of his own but was a loving son and a dear friend to many. Aether attended Murdock High School and was known for his intelligence and creativity. He had a passion for drawing, math, and digital art, and his talent was evident in all of his work.

Tragically, Aether's life was cut short when he was stabbed on his way to racetrac. His bright future and potential were taken from us too soon, leaving a void in the hearts of all who knew him.

Aether will be remembered for his kind heart, his love for learning, and his artistic talents. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and the community of Winchendon.

May he rest in peace.
