Retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Don Black Munson, a decorated veteran and resident of Dallas, Texas, died of cancer November 10, 2025 (Veterans Day minus one), at the age of 87.

Don was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, on August 27, 1938, to George William “Red” Munson, Senior, and Emily Black Munson. During World War II, his father served in the American Red Cross with troops overseas. Don’s mother lived in Daytona Beach, Florida, with Don and his older brother Bill. Following the war, the reunited Munson family, now including his younger sister Ann, was stationed near military bases in several deep South states.

Don spent formative years in Biloxi, Mississippi, where he graduated from high school in 1956. Don’s high school activities include the Order of DeMolay, student government, sports, theater, and broadcasting at the WLOX radio station. Don was selected to attend the leadership training program Mississippi Boys State following his junior year. As a Senior, Don received numerous scholastic honors, and his peers recognized his warm and gregarious personality by naming him student body president and “Mr. Biloxi High School.” Read more….
