Don started the Paint Spot along with Billy Ray Junkin in 1971 and worked there until his retirement in 1999. He was a member of Northwood Hills Baptist Church for 63 years serving in several different capacities. Â He was an avid hunter, fisherman, and gardener. Â He loved being able to share anything he had with family, friends, and neighbors. Don never met a stranger and was always glad to see everyone. Â He loved his Savior, his family, and his church. Â He loved being at the farm and always had projects for everyone from picking up sticks and pecans to planting hunting fields. Â He spent many hours riding his golf cart looking at and enjoying God’s beautiful handiwork in nature. He was quick-witted and always ready to share a laugh with you or at your expense.
Pallbearers will be his grandsons.
