Shortly after their marriage Don was drafted into the Army and ended up spending fifteen months in Korea. When he returned home they began farming west of Herman near his parents. In 1960, the family of six moved to a farm north of Fort Calhoun and this is where the family grew up and Don spent many years enjoying the land, the deer and coyote hunting that he and the boys enjoyed so much.

In 1994, Don retired from farming and he and Judy spent most of their time continuing to camp, fish and enjoy their family. They have made their home in Tekamah since 1999 and he has loved being part of this community. He is also a life-time member of the VFW and past member of the Legion.
