Don Lane, 91, of Kingsport, TN has gone to be with the Lord on Sunday, May 21, 2023, after a brief illness. As a lifelong resident of Kingsport, Don served his community in several ways. Following his marriage to the late Betty Lane, he began a career with the Kingsport Times News where he worked for 35+ years while also serving as the owner of Lane Transportation Inc. for 46 years. He will be remembered as a loyal man with a work ethic that could always be relied on and an unmatched sense of humor that will be dearly missed.

Don is survived by his loving companion, Ruth Williams; sons, Gary Lane (Regina), and Greg Lane (Lisa); daughter, Tina Rivers (Bill); grandchildren, Alison Osborne (Phil) and Cory Lane (Emily); great-grandchildren, Duke, Trentyn, Laney and Cody; step-grandchildren, Carla (Andy), TJ (Chelsea), and Ryan (Ryan); 4 step-great-grandchildren; brothers, C.J. (Bonnie), Wesley (Ruth), and Jimmy (Jean); and several nieces, nephews, and brothers/sisters-in-law.
The family will receive friends from 5-7:00 pm on Wednesday, May 24, 2023 at Hamlett-Dobson Funeral Home, Kingsport. The funeral service will follow at 7:00 pm with Pastor Al South officiating.
The graveside service will be held at 11:00 am on Thursday, May 25, 2023 at East Lawn Memorial Park. Those wishing to go in procession should meet at the funeral home by 10:30 am.
