Canton Elks Club. He also enjoyed listening to all kinds of music, but was especially fond of the Big Band sound of the Glenn Miller Orchestra.

In addition to his parents, Donald was preceded in death by his first wife, Beulah DeWeese Weber and his second wife Edna Everly Weber, as well as two brothers, Lt. Col. Retired, Alvin Weber & Robert Weber.
