Regina revealed that Don lost his battle with prostate cancer.

‘My husband had prostate cancer. He tried chemotherapy the first time around, but it didn’t work. He tried the second time, and it became aggressive on his body.

“I was forced to stop working to care for him. We were struggling financially, and I called on the Premier, who came running and bought the first set of his medication.
