Throughout his career, Donald worked in construction and various odd jobs. He was a member of the Moose Club and lived in Delaware, Radnor, and Marengo, Ohio.

Donald was preceded in death by his mother Margaret Joann (Mitchell) Evert, father Donald Ray Evert Sr., uncles Robert Mitchell and Charles Phelps, and aunt Harriet Sedgewick.
Donald had a wide range of hobbies and interests, including visiting flea markets, collecting coins and baseball cards, watching wrestling, and enjoying firearms and knives. He loved fishing and hunting, attending Buckeyes games with his grandson Jordan, and watching Columbus Crew matches with grandson Carlos. He also cherished visiting fairs, sampling the food, and watching Zane and Zach participate in derbies.
A celebration of Donald's life will be held at a later date.
