“God measures people by the small dimensions of humility and not by the bigness of their achievements or the size of their capabilities.” -Billy Graham
Donald was a proud man with a strong work ethic. He was loyal, funny and committed to his family. He loved his wife of over 55 years, his 3 children and their spouses, 2 grandchildren, extended family, friends and loving pets. Donald was not an outgoing man. Spending his days in the comfort of his family home was truly what gave him joy. He will be forever missed.
