His dedication to Masonry was exemplary in his involvement and attendance at these many Masonic bodies and their events.

Don enjoyed reading, cooking- especially perfecting and trying new recipes, baking birthday cakes for his grandchildren, traveling with Carol, riding his Harley and driving his Corvette. Don's greatest enjoyment in life was time spent with his family who dearly miss him.
