He graduated from Chilton High School. He went on to become a mason, bricklayer, and started his own business, Lefeber Construction. Don was a very strong, hard-working man. He was always helping others. Don married Christine (Jaber) in July 1991. Together they enjoyed many happy times traveling, turkey hunting, and sturgeon spearing.

He was a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles 270, International Union of Bricklayers Local 11, Oakfield Conservation Club, and Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. Don will truly be missed by his wife Chris, daughters Lynn John, Lauri Kounelis, Lois (Tom) Leu, Liann Tetzlaff, Lisa (Jake) Liedke, and Nicole (Joe) Schauer, ten grandchildren, and one great­grandson. He is further survived by his sister Darlene Rios, brother Ken (Maggie), mother-in-law Dorothy Gladys Jaber, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, other relatives, and many friends . He was preceded in death by his parents, sister Carol Entringer, brother-in-law Zeno Entringer, father-in-law Nicholas Jaber, and son-in-law George Tetzlaff.
