Donald always kept the dance floor ready for the Sunday Night Dances at the Matador.



On April 25, 2004 Donald passed away in Ortonville, MN, reaching the age of 74 years, 10 months, and 21 days.



Don enjoyed playing baseball, softball, bowling, hunting, and of course dancing. He also umpired for many years and was very active in his grandchildren's activities. Don was a member of the Trinity Lutheran Church, and was an Ortonville Moose Lodge #407 member. His great sense of humor and jokes will be missed by all.
