Our hearts go out to Don's family and friends over his recent death. Although we are first cousins, it has been many years since I have seen Don and George. Distance has kept us from visiting during the last 50 years. We wish the family a peace that passes all understanding in the loss of such a dear loved one.

My thoughts and heart go out to the Lehman family during this time of loss. I had the pleasure of meeting Donald at Pauline (my sister) and Doug's wedding. I know this is especially sad time for Doug, Pauline, and their daughters - Paige and Kelsey. I just wanted to let them know that they are in my prayers and I am glad that we are family.
Love,
Paula Wilhelm

It was my pleasure to have met Don this summer while visiting my sister who lives in Charlotte Hall. He was such a kind, sweet, gentleman. We went to visit Don, Walter and LeRoy several times a week and we would sit outside and talk and talk. I was looking forward to seeing him again this summer. Sadly that is not to be. He will be missed. May God bless his family and grant them peace.
