Donald Erwin Feldewerd was born August 7, 1964 in Melrose, Minnesota to Aloys and Lorene (Bueckers) Feldewerd. He grew up in rural Spring Hill and graduated in 1982 from Melrose High School. After graduation, Donnie purchased a farm east of Spring Hill. On August 29, 1987, he was united in marriage to Lisa Ann Laubach at St. Louis Catholic Church in Paynesville. The couple continued farming while purchasing his parents’ farm. In 1999, they welcomed a “surprise” son, Brandon. Together Donnie, Lisa, and Brandon continued farming up until Donnie’s diagnosis.
He was a member of St. Michael’s Catholic Church, St. Michael’s Men’s Society, Catholic Order of Foresters of New Munich, and was Spring Hill Township Supervisor for many years. He enjoyed playing poker on Wednesday nights, pontoon rides, and most of all, farming.
