Donald worked for Moore’s Business forms for almost 40 years. until retirement.  His love of people and their many different personalities were always evident when he shared his stories from work.

He loved his family; each member meant the world to him, and they knew it. He had a deep love of the outdoors and hunted with his core group of buddies near Ninette, MB.
