Don married the love of his life, Sharron, in 1966. Sharron and Don had two daughters and traveled the world as a family, including: living in Indonesia, and visiting Egypt, Peru, the Netherlands, Australia, Japan, Thailand and many road trips through out the US. Wherever Don was with his family, their home was filled with love, laughter, and happiness. He was a supportive, thoughtful, and loving parent to his children and partner to his wife.
