Dear Lorna, David and Sharyl and families,
Don was such a caring, loving Christian man. Bill and I know that Don is with Our Lord. Don and Lorna were so welcoming to me when I moved into the Retreat. I fell in love with them. May you all know that he loved you so very much.
With deepest sympathies,
Harriet and Bill

My life has been touched by some of the most incredible people through my career in Property Management. Donald Powers was one of those people. I am thankful to have known his kind and gentle spirit, his love for his family, friends, strangers, and to have been able to for a few years share a coffee and a smile each morning at The Retreat at Trinity. Remembering him fondly and celebrating his life. Sending love to Lorna, his children, and friends.

We are broken-hearted to have learned of Don’s passing. He was like a father to my husband and a very close friend. He will always be in our hearts and remembered for his unfailing devotion and dedication and kindness that he has shown over the years. Until we meet again. John and Diane
