He retired as a Lieutenant Colonel. For 37 years, Donald worked as an engineer at Bell Laboratories and held at least two dozen patents on engineering inventions. In 1967, Donald presented a scientific paper in Russia.Delores and Donald were cautious parents. Maria Pegnato visited them in New York, and helped with the baby. Aunt Delores was mortified to learn that Maria used regular tap water to bathe the baby. Maria also had to stop Donald from sterilizing an orange before he squeezed it for juice.
