The most important thing to Don was always his family, he enjoyed spending time with them and was never too busy or too tired to help when needed. In his retirement years Don loved to spend time with his grandsons. He taught them much and passed on numerous stories about the family history. He was famous for his quick wit and sense of humor, when you wanted a good story Don was the man.
