Donald was born in Wausau on January 11, 1955 to Howard and Luetta (Kasten) Webster. He married Debbie Torres on June 12, 1982 in Milwaukee. Donald was employed by Consolidated Papers Inc. in the paperboard division (later Corenso) from October of 1987 until his passing. He loved his family and children tremendously. Donald shared his talents in many ways, not only with his own children but others, by serving as a Cub Scout Leader at Woodside School for four years, and taking the boys on fishing, camping, and hunting trips. He had a sense of adventure, a thirst for knowledge, and was an avid gardener. Donald also took his love of the outdoors to a whole different level. He took many trips on the boundary waters in his canoe, biked the Dakotas and took a complete bike ride around Lake Michigan. He also built his own home and crafted furniture. Donald had aspirations for completing a cross country trip on his bicycle, and building his own log house before he was called Home. Donald is survived by his wife of 31 blessed years, Debbie; four children: Kari (Aaron) Schulz of Glendale, WI and Andrew, Adam, and Rachel Webster, all of Wisconsin Rapids; four grandchildren: Sydney, Kendall, Connor, and Payton; his mother: Luetta Webster of Wisconsin Rapids; siblings: Michael Webster of Wisconsin Rapids, Kenneth (Laralynn) Webster of Hartford, WI, Anne (Terry) Sullivan of Chicago, IL, Daniel Webster of Wisconsin Dells, and John (Cindy) Peckham, Jean (Harold) Nelson, Belinda (Doug) McGinnis, all of Nekoosa; mother-in-law, Diane Torres of Hartford, WI; sisters-in-law: Teresa Torres, of Hatillo, Puerto Rico and Esther Torres and Maria Margdalena Torres, both of Juana Diaz, Puerto Rico, and Lilly Torres of Cudahy, WI; brother-in-law, Ricky Torres of Hartford, WI; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Howard, son, Jason Webster, father-in-law, Enrique Torres, and sister-in-law, Marianne Webster.
