Don worked in a wide variety of jobs in his lifetime from maintenance, Department of Highways and some timber work in his younger days, to working both underground and strip mines but his main career and lifelong occupation was his music ministry.

He was a part of several singing groups through the years such at Shining Light, Coal Valley Four, The Stewart Family, Gate City Trio and Three Generations. He also absolutely loved to hunt and fish especially with his family. Don was a family man who loved his wife and family more than life itself.
