Those who know Don, and that is most likely all of Monticello, know he loved 3 things: his family, the fire department and showing people how to do things the right way. In 1989 Don joined the Monticello Fire Department and served in many capacities, EMT, Training Officer, Captain and Fire Chief. Donald Paul McCarthy Jr. was born July 21, 1965 at the John McDonald Hospital, Monticello, Iowa. He was the son of Donald and Sandra Starks, McCarthy. He graduated from the Monticello Community Schools with the class of 1983. Don was employed at Julin Printing and Imperial Stone before becoming a production supervisor at Orbis in Monticello Don loved with his whole being and you never questioned that love. Don married his high school sweetheart, Pam Moats, November 3, 1984. From there their family grew and from that love came Don and Pam's greatest accomplishments, Morgan, Tyler, Courtney and all of their beautiful grandchildren. Don loved being a grandpa to Eli, Lincoln and Noah. He is survived by his wife Pam, 3 children, Morgan (Spencer) Owen, Lisbon, Tyler (Ashley) McCarthy, Anamosa, Courtney (Carter) Balentine, Anamosa, 3 grandchildren, Eli and Lincoln Owen, Noah McCarthy, his mother Sandra McCarthy, Monticello, his siblings, Chris (Tully) Reilly, Manchester, Jason( Debbie) McCarthy, Olathe, KS., his in-laws, Marilyn and Ivan Opperman, Steve (Julie) Moats, Curt (Diann) Moats, Leann Moats, and Shelly (Dan) Ricklefs and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Donald and a brother, Ron and father-in-law Ken Moats. Don loved any time spent with family and especially making them laugh or smile. He did that until his very last breath. He always said his only wish was to put "smiles on everyone's faces." He got that wish until the very end. Don was active in his children's lives from coaching T-Ball and Baseball, teaching CCD and working in the Booster Club. The family would like to thank, the love and support of the community of Monticello. The Nurses, NP's and Above & Beyond who were all part of his care. The Monticello Fire Department for all you've done, you guys, are his second family. To ALL of our family and friends, we couldn't have done it without you. Goettsch Funeral Home has taken Don and his family into their care.
