Don had been a resident of Bristow for the last 24 years. Don attended OSU IT where he met and fell in love with his wife Shelley. They were married January 4, 2002, making their home in Bristow.  Don worked as a structural draftsman for many years providing for those in his home.  He was a man of faith.  Don and Shelley were members of Faith Baptist Church in Slick, Oklahoma where they attended regularly when his health permitted.  He loved deeply and greatly enjoyed time with his family and friends.
