Donald served our Country honorably in the Marines. He loved the outdoors, hunting, fishing, riding horses, competing in rodeos, working cattle, and farming. Donald was a very diverse man throughout his life, he worked abroad for the US Embassy, as an agriculture specialist in Africa & Brazil, worked as a welder for a while as well as being a manager for Whitney's Hunting Club. In his spare time, he also enjoyed dancing, watching rodeo competitions, wrestling, western movies, and reading. Most of all Donald loved spending time with his family and his pet chimpanzee, "Jr.". He was loved by many and will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
