Don was an accomplished businessman who spent the majority of his career in the real estate industry. Don was a home builder in Oklahoma City and real estate developer in Oklahoma City, Midwest City and Moore. He was proud of his most recent endeavor, creating "The Five Suggestions App".

For the past twenty-one years Don was an integral member of the recovery community in Oklahoma City. Recovery was his calling, and he gave his time and energy to people from all walks of life, including the numerous men he sponsored over the years. He will be remembered for his generous spirit, his loving and steady demeanor, his sense of humor, and his dedication to helping others not yet ready to help themselves. The many lives he touched will be his legacy.

A celebration of his life will be held Monday the 23rd of September at 1:00pm at Crossings Community Church. Flowers can be sent to Hahn-Cook or in lieu of flowers donations may be sent to the Western Club Foundation, 5207 N. Western Oklahoma City 73118.
