He started as an iron pourer and worked his way up as a respected supervisor in the lab. After 33 years, and building many friendships he then retired. Wanting to do more, Don passionately drove van for VARC which led him to a new circle of friends. Don took pride in his love for gardening and it showed with a beautiful array of flowers he planted yearly. He also supplied his family & friends with an abundance of vegetables that he grew. One of Don's hobbies was his ability to turn a piece of wood that he created in his extraordinary workshop, into anything especially his eagles displayed throughout the country. He was an avid Packer fan to the point where family events were never planned during game time. Wheel of Fortune & Family Fued were two shows he also enjoyed watching.
