He came to Payson in 2000, moving here permanently in 2008. He was a member of St. Philips Catholic Church, and a Vincentian. He enjoyed his work at the food bank and loved the time he was a ROMEO (retired old men eating out). Don was a beloved husband, father and brother, and will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
