Don was born and raised in Mansfield and worked on the farm with his dad while growing up. On March 16, 1953, he began working for Kraft Foods at the Mansfield location and retired from the Springfield plant in the late 1980’s. He later worked for many years at the Bank of Mansfield. He was a member of Mansfield Lodge #543 A.F. & A.M. and had been a member of the Abou Ben Adhem Shrine.

In his spare time he enjoyed going to their lake property and spending as much time there as possible.

Don was a loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle and a caring neighbor and friend. We celebrate his life and are at peace knowing his battle with Alzheimer’s is over.
