Born in Peoria, on July 9th 1950, Donn was a life-long athlete, excelling in baseball, basketball, track, golfing and sport fishing. He passed his love of sports to his sons and grandchildren through backyard lessons, coaching their teams, or cheering from the sidelines.
A dedicated provider for his family, he spent his working life at B.F. Goodrich until his retirement in 2009.
Devoted to his parents, and an avid gardener, after work he would often drive an hour out of his way to visit his parents and help them maintain large gardens there in addition to his own garden at home. He worked tirelessly to be a good husband, father, son, brother and friend.
