He was born September 5, 1954 to Lonnie Preston Burrow Jr. and Wanda Fayrene Harvey, he was the second of 9 children.
He resided in Fischer, Texas for the last 3 years and spent 44 years in Alvin, Texas raising his family and committing his time to his church.  He is survived by his loving wife, of 48 years, Diana Talley Burrow of Fischer, Texas; his son Trever Don Burrow and wife Melissa of Midlothian, Texas; his daughter Amy Burrow Leach and husband Jerry Leach of Canyon Lake, Texas; and granddaughter Ava Diane Leach and grandsons Brooks Andrew Burrow, Dylan Ray Leach and Carson Thomas Burrow.
 
He is survived by five siblings, Perry Burrow, Kenneth Burrow, Clifford Burrow, Rhonda Hernandez, Linda DelCampo and was preceded in death by Lonnie Burrow, Brenda Bancroft and Jason Burrow.  Don left numerous nieces, nephews and friends that will miss him.
 
Don learned how to be a master carpenter from his father and has built many homes for all to enjoy.  Then, he went to work at Texas Petrochemical in Pasadena, Texas and became a Shift Supervisor.
He loved working with his hands building furniture, gardening, fishing and camping; he also loved giving back to his church community and sharing his love for Jesus with everyone.  Some of his most proud moments were becoming ordained as a Deacon as well as completing the Faith Bible Institute Course at First Baptist Church of Alta Loma.  After Hurricane Harvey damaged their church, Don worked endlessly to restore the Mother’s Day Out building and Senior Parsonage.
