Don had a deep love for the outdoors and enjoyed hunting, fishing,
snowmobiling and spending time at his home in northern New Hampshire.
Above all, he treasured the time spent with family and friends. He was
known for hosting the most outstanding “Garage Parties”. Don enjoyed
attending events for his grandchildren and teaching them how to fish
and skate on the backyard pond. He especially loved his
great-grandchildren, who never failed to bring a smile to his face.
Don was a Third Degree member of the Fr. Routhier Council #4666
Knights of Columbus for over 60 years. He served multiple terms on the
