Don was a loving father and grandfather to his three children and four grandchildren. He was described by all as a great friend with a contagious smile, a huge heart, and an uncanny ability to fix almost anything. He enjoyed being outdoors, riding his Harley, golfing, and spending time at Brush Lake where he was a very active board member for the MBLCA. He was recently an integral part of the renovation and opening of ‘The Shore Bar and Grill’ at the lake. He also enjoyed spending time with family and friends, and had a devoted relationship with his girlfriend Pam Whiteley. ‘Doc’ will truly be missed by all who knew him. Don is survived by his three children, Brandi (Nick) Bear and their children Kane and Regan, Bismarck; Sarah (Shane) Karhoff and their children Wesley and Oscar, Burlington; Scott Dockter, Severance, CO; his brothers, Dale (Sharon) Dockter, Bismarck; Jon (Julie) Dockter, Port St. Lucie, FL; his uncle, nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents Erwin and Marian Dockter. In lieu of flowers, a Brush Lake memorial fund will be set up in his name at Capital Credit Union in Bismarck.
