Don worked at Llanllar Estate as the Estate Manager alongside Patsy for 40 years.  In his spare time Don loved watching his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Blue Jays.  When not watching his favourite teams, he loved to play the game himself.  Don loved to travel and was a volunteer firefighter with the Windermere Fire Department for 25 years.  He was also known for his sense of humour and his friendly smile.
