He began his masonic travels as a teenager in the Order of Demolay, eventually associated with F&AM Lodge #237 in Arroyo Grande, CA, Scottish Rite Lodge of Santa Barbara, CA, and the Shriners Lodge of Los Angeles. Don was also a longtime member of the Elks, the American Legion, and the National Rifle Association. He held a private pilot’s license and, at one time, owned and piloted his own plane.
