    Don was a self-made man. He was proud of the hard work and perseverance that was reflected in his many accomplishments. He graduated from the University of Kansas in 1962 with a degree in Physical Education. He started his career as a PE and History teacher in Rossville, Kansas. After a couple of years he joined the management training program at Goodyear Tire and Rubber in Topeka, Kansas. Over the years he rose to become both a plant manager and ultimately a director for the company and its subsidiary Kelly-Springfield, in many locations. His many years of service culminated with his retirement in 1997 in Gadsden, Alabama.

    In 1959 at KU, Don met the love of his life Cynthia Conrad. They married in 1960. Don and Cynthia traveled extensively, with his career and on their own as they checked off many locations in the US, Europe and around the world. Exotic locales such as Luxembourg, Brazil, Egypt, Alaska and many more were favorites. Together they enjoyed golf and cowboy action shooting, winning many competitions around the U.S.
