ONTARIO: He heard the angels singing, then someone called his name, he turned and saw a young man â smiling as he came â âfriend you may not know me, but wait, you used to drive my Church Bus, when I was only eight. Thank you, for giving to the Lord, I am a life that was a changed.â Don Keiter gave to the Lordâs work in practical, soul-winning, ways.
The Lord called Don home Christmas morning, December 25, 2020 from his Ontario home. He was 82.
Born January 31, 1938 in Bucyrus to Joseph D. and Gladys (Looker) Keiter, he was honorably discharged from the US Navy in 1955. Don trained as a machinist on the screw machines at North Electric in Galion. He worked at The Ohio Brass and retired in 2001 from Therm-O-Disc.

Per capita income in the United States has more than doubled in the last 60 years. In 1959, Americans average per capita income was about $15,000. As of 2019, the average per capita income in the United States was $35,672.
Incomes, however, have not risen equally nationwide. In many major metropolitan areas, incomes have increased far less. Many of these cities were relatively wealthy areas in the mid-20th century, but broad economic trends hampered growth and led to stagnant wages over the decades since.
To determine the American cities that went from rich to poor, 24/7 Wall St. calculated per capita income for all U.S. metropolitan areas and metro area equivalents in both 1959 and in 2019. We ranked cities based on their change in rank relative to all metro areas over that 60-year period. Income figures for 1959 have been adjusted for inflation.
