To Don´s family, my sincere condolences. I was privileged to be his friend for many decades. Will never forget our time together at Liberty nursing home while Rosemary was there. God used Don to teach me the principles of what it means to "love your wife as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her." His witness of being there every day with her permanently affected me and others who saw him. Loved seeing his dedication to Bud Davis as a friend and our times of eating at Frisch´s after the nursing home service. Don had a big heart and a crazy sense of humor. Will miss him and looking forward to being reunited in heaven.
Phil Norris.
