He was born on April 10, 1924 on a farm north of Conrad to Marie and Michael Koenig. He was the second oldest child and first son. When Don was a toddler, his family moved to a new homestead on the other side of town; the farm that remains in the family today. When the United States joined World War II, Don was given a medical dispensation, so rather than joining the service, he moved to Helena to work on the fighter planes in what was to later become the Helena College of Technology Aviation Mechanic School. He had many colorful stories about working on the planes and living in Helena and while there he developed an interest in flying. When he returned to Conrad he took flying lessons and worked as a mechanic at Newmans, a well-known Chrysler dealership at that time. It was there that he met Evelyn O'Keefe, who moved from the Collins area to work as the bookkeeper. After pursuing Evelyn for more than two years, and multiple proposals of marriage, she finally said yes. They married on March 19, 1953 and moved to the farm where Don took over the day-to-day operations and worked as a mechanic on the side. Within a year their first child was born followed through the years by four more. Don farmed full-time until 2007 when he contracted the West Nile virus after being bitten by a mosquito while working in his garden. His health started going downhill that same year. He is survived by his wife of 60 years; four daughters; a son Michael; 10 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren whom he adored, and two sisters.
