Mr. Don Schell passed away peacefully today at the age of 94. He was a great alum, friend and mentor to all that knew him. Mr. Don spent the better part of 20 years in the dugout with Coach Rick Jones for which whom he shared so many great memories. Coach spoke weekly with Mr. Don until he fell ill last week. Fortunately he rallied long enough yesterday to speak to him one last time. His son relayed that his dad had a big smile on his face before he regressed until passing this morning. He was a great representative of Tulane University and will be missed by all especially the former coaches, players, grounds crew members and fans that got to know him so well over the years. He meant a great deal to Tulane baseball.
Rest In Peace Mr. Don.
Arrangements as follows:
Monday, Sept 25, St. Francis of Assisi 631 State St New Orleans. Visitation will be from 10am-12noon followed by Mass and a graveside service for the family.
