D was born in Aberdeen, Idaho on July 5, 1940, the second child of Sarah Afton and Clair Hawes. D joined the Marine Corps on July 30, 1958, at the age of 18. His orders sent him to Barstow where he served as a military police officer and met and married Nancy Barnes, together they had one son, Danny Blair. Once his service was completed on April 24, 1962, D chose to stay in Barstow and start what would be his lifelong career with the Barstow Police Department. While working at the BPD, he had the honor and privilege of becoming the face of the D.A.R.E. Program, a program which he held near and dear to his heart. D was known for his infectious personality, generosity and his smile would often unite the community in which he proudly served. D served at the BPD for 37 years and retired with the honor of Chief of Police in 1998.
