Donald Lee Drehouse was born April 19, 1956, in Cedar Rapids, to Donald and Helen (Martens) Drehouse. He worked for Rockwell Goss until their closing, and most recently for St. Luke's Hospital until retiring in June after many years of dedicated service. Though he was the youngest, his two sisters always looked up to him as their hero. He will be remembered as a respectful, honest, and hard-working man. Donnie was a listener and a gentle man who looked for the goodness in all people. He was a true Christian with a pure heart. Donnie's passion was his music; he was a talented drummer and guitarist. His other interests were photography, fishing, and hunting, but especially Harley Davidsons'he rode up to the end. Donnie, you will be in our hearts daily and be remembered for your peaceful nature. We ask that you go out and do a sincere Act of Kindness in his memory. Memorials may be directed to the family in care of Stewart Baxter Funeral & Memorial Services, Cedar Rapids, or the American Red Cross.
