Falcon rugby club
Got to know Don his last few years with the Falcon rugby club. I replaced him at the position that he owned (prop) since the club began. I saw that as an honor and with big “boots” to fill. Those guys and Don laid the groundwork for the Falcons to become one of the best clubs nationally. Great guy and what I learned was how successful he was in everything beyond the pitch. So sorry for his family

I was in Don's fraternity at the University of MO - Rolla. I remember his as one of the good guys and as a good football player on the school football team. It's sad to hear of his death.
My condolences to Don's family.

I never met anyone who put 110% effort into everything he did. He loved Dana, his children and grandchildren immensely. Pat...

I was 17 years old and a country boy who dreamed of playing football for the Miners. Thank God for the senior classman Don Bacich who willfully took a green kid under his wing and gave him hope and guidance to help me be a fair player. I didn’t get to say it but thank you Don for your leadership in my early years and may the Lord’s blessings be to your family.
