Don graduated from Elizabethtown High School. He worked on the safety team at Republic Conduit for many years.

His grandson, Atticus, was his best friend; they had many great times with one another. Don will be missed by all that knew him.

Left to cherish the memories of Don's life is his mother, Marilyn Steinmacher; his wife, Michelle Steinmacher; his sons, Austin Steinmacher (Frankie Steinmacher) and Joseph "JR" Reed; his brother, Rob Steinmacher; and his best friend and grandson, Atticus Steinmacher.
