Donald served his country as a Corporal in the U. S. Marine Corp. He enjoyed going to the Colorado Mountains to fly fish. His favorite “fishing hole” was the Poudre River Canyon, near Fort Collins. Those who knew him well know he liked fast cars, the Pittsburg Steelers and the Houston Astros. Most of all Donald loved his family. He was a devoted husband, fantastic dad, and a dear friend.
