Donald was an active member of the Valley City Eagles Club for many years, where he served as president and served on various committees including Trustee. He loved collecting antiques and never hesitated to go out of his way to find the next treasure. He appreciated the Barnes County Museum for preserving the past and was proud of the museum.

He served as a Barnes County commissioner for four years and was a board member of Edna Township board serving as treasurer for 25 plus years. He was also a volunteer fireman for the city of Dazey.
He loved his children and grandkids. He was lovingly called “Papa” and he enjoyed going to their activities, birthday parties and spending time with them. He listened to what they had to say and was always calm in his responses. His grandchildren often brought the “kid” out in him.
