Donald L. "Grandpa" Alm, Sr., passed away at Wyoming Medical Center on March 3, in the arms of his loving family. He was born in Bridgeport Nebraska on May 13, 1939 to Arch and Georgia (Hart) Alm. Don moved to Casper at the age of five where he graduated from NCHS. Don married Julianne Fox on June 3, 1961 in Casper. Working as a truck driver for many years for Salt Creek Freightways, Consolidated Freightways, and UPS, Don won numerous truck driving awards and was twice named "Driver of the Month" by the Wyoming Trucking Association with over 2 million accident free miles. He owned and operated his own construction business, D.A. Stinger Service, from 1981 to 1994. After retiring in 1994, he especially loved playing golf, fishing, camping and traveling with his wife and "The Boys". His bright yellow golf cart was a familiar site at the local golf course. Don enjoyed working around the house, tinkering in his messy garage, outside Christmas decorating, and tending to his beautiful yard and flowers.
He is survived by his wife of 45 years, sons Mitchell with wife Roxanne of Draper, Utah, Don Jr. (D.J.) and his wife Kaye of Colorado Springs, son Jimmy of Casper, grandchildren Sarah AIm, Mitchell "Sugman" Alm; Haylee Alm, Christopher Hudson Alm, great-granddaughter Madison, brothers Archie Alm of Casper, Robert Alm of La Mesa, California, Ray Bullington of Laughlin Nevada, and Gary Bullington of Montana. He was preceded in death by his parents, son Chris, sister Dottie Johnson and brothers Richard Alm and Les Bullington.
