My dear Lynn. I have very fond memories of you and Don many years ago when I lived in Manor and we all played bridge together and shared wonderful friendships.
Don was such a gentleman and your home was lovely and so welcoming. My son, Brett, read about Don on Facebook and remembered the name and called today to tell me. Don was very blessed and I know you will be at peace with your memories. My prayers go out to you and your family.
