He attended Drake University, graduating in accounting in 1940. At Drake he met Marian Streyffeler, the love of his life. They were married in 1941, and on June 1 this year celebrated 70 years of marriage. After serving in the Army Air Force during World War II, he and Marian lived their entire lives in Des Moines. They are longtime members of First Christian Church. They reared five children, emphasizing education, family, responsibility and community service. Don devoted his career to Easter Stores and Easter Enterprises, the family business begun by his father with a single store in Norwalk. Don and his brothers grew the business into a chain of grocery stores, family centers and hardware stores across Iowa, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana, with additional businesses that included trucking and the Farmers Trust and Savings Bank in Spencer. Easing into retirement in the late 1980s, Don turned his attention to a wide range of community boards. He was a founding trustee and tireless supporter of the Des Moines Metro Opera. He was a trustee for Drake University and a longtime member of Des Moines Rotary. He and Marian long enjoyed Castle Club, Drake basketball, Des Moines Symphony, Drake music, Civic Music and The Playhouse, as well as the family cottage in Clear Lake.
