Dustin and Dana, I´m so sorry for your loss. Don cut my hair for over 40 years. I wasn´t aware of his passing since I don´t take the newspaper, Scott Parrill told me at the golf course yesterday. Harold Harris

Don gave a lot of stylists and barbers a start. I was one. I built a good client base. I still am blessed to have them for not only customers but frienda. There were 6 or 7 shops opened after working for Don. My shop was one of them. I called and thanked him. May he rest in pease. Ann Albeet

So sorry to hear of Don's passing. He had cut my hair for many years. He would often talk about his two sons and his grandchildren. Thoughts and prayers for the family.
