Donald grew up in San Antonio and loved playing baseball as a young boy. He later coached and played for a minor league team in San Antonio. His other passion was working in the produce and grocery industry, owning several of his own businesses serving the local communities around San Antonio and South Texas.  Later in life, Donald and Betty started a real estate business buying, selling and leasing investment properties. Donald and Betty settled in Seguin which had been a family homestead and raised children, Edward, Kathryn and Mark. Donald loved the outdoors and was always ready to camp or fish on local lakes and rivers. He loved dancing, big band swing and country music.
