Don’s Aunt Lydia raised him throughout his childhood due to losing his parents at a very young age. Don was baptized and confirmed in St. Joseph's Catholic Church, where he was a lifelong member. He attended St. Joseph’s Catholic School and graduated from Pierce High School in 1964. Don did farm work growing up as a kid, hauling hay, milking cows, as well as custom farming for others. Farming was a lifestyle for Don, it really meant a lot to him. Don bought the family farm in 1976. He married Charlotte Larson on June 20, 1981 at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Pierce. He continued to farm in the Pierce area his whole life with his family. Don enjoyed attending auctions, tractor pulls, fishing, buying and selling equipment, and always had his handy vice grips on him. Saturday nights were always spent catching up with friends and usually ended up in a card game. Don never did retire; he farmed in his heart until the day he died.
