Don was a lifetime member of the Kenton Eagles Lodge 2163. He played many roles, such as president and trustees for more than 20 years.

He loved sports. The Browns, Ohio State, Cavaliers, and the Indians. He also loved his poker games and his pinochle nights with all his card buddies. Don was a very kind man and loved by many. He will be dearly missed.
