Age 69 of Inver Grove Heights.
Passed away peacefully surrounded by family on October 27th, 2024 after 3½ year battle with cancer.
Preceded in death by parents, Martin and Rosemary.
Survived by loving wife of 41 years, Gail; daughter Vanessa (Tom) Sederstrom; son, Steve (Heather); grandchildren, Meyer & Evelyn; also other family and friends.
Don fought his cancer with all that he had. He never gave up. He was always the first person to help anyone with anything. He would refer to himself as Don the Giver. If you showed up at his house, he would be sure to offer you a glass of milk or some Mountain Dew Code Red. He loved music and shared that love with his granddaughters. He also loved history, especially anything about World War II. He liked listening to the podcast, Vikings Purple Daily, even though he was a fair weather fan.
Thank you to Minnesota Oncology, Vascular and Interventional Experts and St Croix Hospice for taking such good care of him throughout his journey. He will be deeply missed.
