He was born in Phoenix, AZ on June 10, 1956, son of the late Dorsey Ray Hill and Margaret Louise Harris. He grew up in Phoenix, AZ and at times in Southern CA. During his childhood to make money he would mow lawns, help sell homemade candles, and search the cars for keys (he loved carrying keys around) and he'd search the sofas for change at his uncle Jr.'s house. His Aunt Pam and him would clean the Tasty Freeze parking lot for free ice cream. He loved riding his bike and playing baseball. He enjoyed the outdoors, he camped, fished, loved going to the racetrack. He enjoyed playing pool, horseshoes, darts, and shuffleboard. He loved to cook and could throw stuff in a pot and it would be so yummy. He had a quirky sense of humor and loved to tease his children and grandchildren. He loved doing things with his friends and family. Don was a very hard worker too. He worked at roofing, his favorite was hot tar. He continued roofing until 1996. He was able to tell you exactly how many square and how much to bid by just a glance. He could smell a roof a mile away. He'd say, "Awe, there's a roof I smell it." He loved the smell of hot tar. Don met and married his wife of 47 years, Cheryl Rendle, on August 18, 1974. Together they had three children, 1 daughter and 2 sons, and they also raised 2 nephews and 1 niece that he considered his own.
