Later he moved to Winnipeg and was a grain trader at the Commodity exchange for 20 years. Donnie has always done carpenter work. When the exchange closed he was a full time contractor. He really enjoyed his work. Over the years through his business he has met so many terrific people. Don really cared about his friends. He spent time on his phone everyday talking and sharing with them. You all know who you are and that you held a very special place in his heart. Don is having a celebration of life on Friday, special friends and family only. Thanks to the Victoria Hospital urgent care and to the Doctors and Nurses at St Boniface. In Don’s name you could donate to the Humane Society. Donnie is the love of my life
