Donald grew up in Lebanon, IL but lived for many years in Southern California where he worked as a stockbroker and later in the commercial real estate division of the banking industry. He enjoyed food and going out to eat immensely and could remember the entire menu at a restaurant years after dining there. Donald was known for being a delightful storyteller and filling a room with laughter. He traveled abundantly and had an astute curiosity about science and nature. He took great pride in cultivating the yard at his family home in Lebanon and will live on in every tree he planted there.
According to his wishes, his remains will be cremated. No service will be held at this time.
