It’s never easy to lose someone you love. It’s one of the most helpless feelings there is on Earth. But as Don did, I thank God for the promise that there is a Heaven. And I’m not surprised that everyone I’ve talked to said Don was a really good guy. Those are such simple words, but it’s so true. He was kind and caring. He thought of others all the time. He always tried to do the right thing. He was a good man. How wonderful is it that the gift he leaves behind—the memories that will live in our hearts is that he was a good man. Thank you, Don. Love and Peace.

We will miss Don sitting on the porch waving as we made our garden runs. He was always a bright spot in our daily drive, knowing he was sitting there relaxed and enjoying his day. Our sincere condolences to the family.
