On the morning of June 18, 2025, Don passed away at St. Vincent’s hospital in Billings, MT. He was comforted by his family. Donald was 63.
He was born on October 8, 1961, in Butte, MT. Donald was the middle child of Roy and Mary Ellen Webster. He has an older brother, Roy (Katie) Webster, and sister, Vickie (Jeff) Fellows.
Our brother Donald had a mischievous personality. A social butterfly that touched all our lives . A Honey Badger and a Joker mix-up. His motto was “Ask for forgiveness, not permission”.
Donald loved riding motorbikes and hiking in the mountains. He loved tinkering on his vehicles. Donald loved washing and waxing his 1956 Chevy Belair. Donald loved being president of the National Hockey League of Centerville.
Donald had an affinity for watching Daytona car races and being at the races when he could. He also enjoyed reading about the Civil War and Abraham Lincoln. Donald loved his grey cats, which he named after his dad’s brothers, and all his dogs. Donald loved Charlie who was his driving buddy on his long hauls in his semi-truck. I’ll miss the honks announcing his arrival no matter the time.
Donald earned a degree of Bachelor of Science in Metallurgical Engineering and a degree of Master of Science in Mineral processing of engineering.
Donald was preceded in death by his parents, Roy and Mary Ellen Webster; grandparents, Earl & Gladys Clemo; aunt and uncle, Bea Tallon, and Earl Clemo; and his cousin, John Tallon.
Donald is survived by his brother and sister and their spouses; nephew, Eric Webster; and niece, Kellee Webster.
Donald did not like to be alone. His family meant so much to him. Donald was my anchor.

I’ve known Donald since Vickie and I became best friends in first grade at Blaine elementary. We grew up camping, riding trail bikes, and Donald always on the hunt for the biggest wolf spiders he could find to show us girls and watch us flee in terror. He was a funny guy.
I will always remember how kind Donald was to his neighbors, my Aunt and Uncle, always helping them out and being there no matter what the problem.
Most of all, he was there for my best friend Vickie through thick and thin. He loved his baby sister. My heartfelt condolences to Vickie and Roy. Donald, you will missed.

Don and I had some fun terrorizing Montana Tech. He was a talented metallurgist. See ya on the other side!
Joe Williams says
After I learned of his passing, my very first reflection was how much I enjoyed being around him, and how good you felt in his company. We were junior high and high school buddies, and nearly 50 years later, that memory rushed front and center. May we all strive to be remembered like that. God bless his memory, and provide comfort for those he leaves behind.
Mary Moralez says
The first thing that comes to mind when remembering Donald is how hard he worked to earn his degrees from MT Tech and how amazingly intelligent he was. He was full of energy and ideas. He had a blast creating and electing himself Pesident of the Centerville NHL. His house was filled with friends competing for championships on a tabletop hockey game. He was a good guy with a great sense of humor.
My heart goes out to you Vickie, Roy, and all of the Webster family. Rest in peace, Donald. You are sadly missed!
