Donald "Don" Girard of Kuna, Idaho, passed away Thursday, March 16, 2017, at the age of 83. He left us peacefully and lovingly with his family at his side. He fought the battle but lost the war with cancer. Don was born March 23, 1933, in Burbank, S.D., to Alphonse and Stella Girard. He enlisted in the U.S. Air Force after high school and after returning from basic training he married Madonna "Donna" Millette July 30, 1953, in Vermillion, S.D. The Air Force life took him and Donna, along with their children, to many places they may never would have experienced, including three years in Germany. Along the way, wherever he went, he made life-long friends. While stationed at Nellis AFB in Las Vegas, he retired in 1973 after 20 years in the Air Force. Don then worked for Clark County as an operations coordinator at McCarran International Airport, Las Vegas. He retired from there after 22 years and enjoyed life traveling with Donna and being a grandpa and great-grandpa.

For several years, he drove children from Las Vegas to the Shriners Children's Hospital in Los Angeles for medical treatment.
