Don Favor
<p>Welcome back to Well, What Do You Know?</p><p>Every once in a while, an episode comes along that's a little different from the rest. This is one of those episodes.</p><p>Today, I'm joined by two men who share a unique connection with me. Dave Lyons, Myrle Wayne Swank, and I all married into the same family. More specifically, we're all sons-in-law of a man who had a tremendous impact on our lives: Don Favor.</p><p>Don passed away in November of 2020 after a battle with ALS, but anyone who knew him knows that his influence didn't end there. He was the kind of man who left fingerprints on the lives of everyone around him. A devoted husband to Patty for 57 years. A loving father to four daughters. A proud grandfather and great-grandfather. A man of deep faith. A hard worker. A horseman. A storyteller. A friend.</p><p>But if you ask the people who knew him best, they'll tell you that what made Don special wasn't found on a résumé or in a list of accomplishments. It was found in the way he treated people.</p><p>Don never met a stranger. He welcomed people into his life without conditions. Whether you were family, a neighbor, a friend, or someone who had just shown up at the farm for the first time, you were treated like you belonged. That's a rare gift.</p><p>In this conversation, Dave, Myrle, and I simply sat down and shared memories. Some are funny. Some are touching. Some are stories that only make sense if you've spent time on a farm, in a workshop, or around a campfire. We talk about Don's endless collection of tools and treasures, his willingness to help with any project, his love of horses, his unwavering faith, and his remarkable ability to stay calm no matter what life threw his way.</p><p>As I listened back to this recording, I realized something. We started out intending to tell stories about Don, but what really happened is that we discovered how much of him still lives on in the lessons he taught us. The things he built. The people he loved. The example he set.</p><p>If you've ever lost someone who helped shape who you are, I think you'll find something familiar in this conversation.</p><p>So in honor of a husband, father, grandfather, friend, and one of the finest men we've ever known, here's our tribute to Don Favor.</p><p>This is Well, What Do You Know?</p>
