Don was born on February 8, 1929 in Minot, North Dakota, to Carl Ludwig Nedrud and Gladys George Nedrud.

Don started working at AT&T in Kansas City where his children were born and then transferred to Irving, Texas. After 30 years with AT&T, Don retired early to enjoy his interest in hunting and the outdoors.

He was a member of St. John’s United Methodist Church for over 20 years and strengthened his faith through his Walk to Emmaus and was devoted to his reunion group for years. Don was proud of his Norwegian heritage as evidenced in his leadership role in the Viking Fest held in Georgetown and the President of the Sons of Norway Lodge in Austin.
