Don grew up in Wiley City and as a young man inherited the nickname “Whitey” because of the light color of his hair. Don’s greatest hobbies were fishing, shooting sage rats with his pellet gun and going to yard sales. He was always the first one to get out of the car for the best buy. Don was also a collector of knives, guns, and anything having to do with fishing.
Survivors include his companion Beverly Dellinger of Yakima; two sons, Donald North Jr. of Yakima and Lyman North; three step-children, Kelly, Lisa and Michael; granddaughters, Jessica and Sarah; and grandsons Derek, Jerod, Brandl, and William.
He was preceded in death by his wife Marilyn North and his daughter Tanya North.
