Donald Davis was born March 10, 1936, the son of John and Anna (Beaston) Dybevik on the home farm in rural Elma, IA. He attended and graduated from Elma High School in 1954. After completing his education, Donald worked on his family’s farm until 1968. On October 23, 1971, Donald was united in marriage to the love of his life, Jacqueline Day Klockner at the Little Brown Church in Nashua, IA. Together, they made their home in Elma where they welcomed their four children, Ryan, Heather, Tiffany and Brittany. He worked at Schley Cheese Factory until it closed and then began working for SMI in Cresco, IA until his retirement in 2005. Donald was a very hard worker and enjoyed building various items with his hands. He was a collector of many things including, memories, pictures, antiques, toys and most of all, love. Not only did he have a sweet tooth but also a very sweet heart. His quick wit and humor will be missed by those who knew Donald.
