Donald was a bright man who wanted the best for his children, and grandchildren. He was one of the most positive people in the family about what was happening to him over the years, every time that someone would come over all you saw on his face was a grin from ear to ear. He endured and fought ALS for a total of 13 years till he sadly passed on February 6th of 2015. He was in the air force from 1968 to 2004 when his diagnosis made it to where he could no longer serve for the military, yet he still made sure to keep serving, but under god. he is now in gods hands, watching over us.
