Donnie was born and raised in the Stillwater and Perkins area. He grew up enjoying football and farming where he gained a hard work ethic. With his wife Vivian, they enjoyed several years serving at Cookson Hills Christian Ministries where he poured

into children and friends as he leaned into his love for Christ. They moved to Glencoe, where he worked at Mercury Mercruiser until its closing, he then worked at 108 Salvage and ZECO in Guthrie. He then spent time running “Pop School” caring for and doting on his grandchildren.

If you knew him, you understood first, his love for Jesus and second, his love for his wife, family and friends. He spent much of his time being the hands and feet of Jesus, reaching out to others and serving in his home Church. He wanted everyone to find the same peace he had in Jesus.

His wishes were to celebrate what Jesus can do for you. There will be a memorial service only, at Glencoe Church of Christ at 10:30 am on Wednesday, December 31, 2025. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider what Donnie would have wanted; Each person to find someone to bless in their own lives as an act of Christ.
