In Don’s younger years he loved to play hockey and football. Eventually, returning to Maidstone to coach hockey for Maidstone Jets. Don loved to hear a great joke, share a cold beer and BS with close friends. He loved a good healthy debate on a variety of topics and was pretty tough to beat at Trivia! Don and Connie spent many years enjoying trips to Mexico and other vacations with friends throughout the US and Canada. Don’s special place was at the cabin in Loon Lake.
