My family and I are so sorry the loss of your dad. He was the youngest brother to my grandfather William Behan, who passed away 50 years ago! I remember I thought he looked so much like my grandpa with his Snow White hair! May he in peace in the arms of Jesus. Jim, Janis and Donna (Behan)

Our deepest sympathy to all the family. Rich and I were so delighted that Don was able to attend my retirement party this summer. John and I are so glad we were able to visit Uncle Don at Cerenity. We had a lovely visit and shared a few laughs and memories. Our families were so close while we were growing up. I remember spending Sunday dinners together regularly. Comversations about every topic imaginable followed from politics to the color of spots on Jersey cows! There were family backyard picnics, all day trips to Turtle Lake for food, swimming and baseball games. Booya at Don and Venetta's simmering on the stove while your Mom stirred and laughed and chatted non-stop. I remember babysitting you older girls and spending the night. As Deb said, your Dad was our favorite and we will miss him and his infectious smile ! Cherish your endless memories and know that he is at peace and reunited with his family again. God Bless! Cousin Barb

Our deepest sympathy to all the family. I am so glad John and I had the opportunity to visit Uncle Don at Serenity. We shared many memories and had a few laughs together. I remember spending most Sunday afternoons together with your family when you girls were young. We had dinner together and settled in for long conversations about everything imaginable including what color spots were on Jersey vs Gurnsey cows. I remember card games and late night runs for White Castle burgers(then 10 cents each). I remember booya simmering in your kitchen with your Mom laughing and chatting while stirring. I remember day long picnics and swimming at Turtle lake, backyard barbecues and babysitting you oldest girls. Uncle Don and his infectious smile will be missed by all. Cherish your memories. God Bless! Cousin Barb Holmen

Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you send him home to heaven. So many angels have been added this past year or so. Please keep his memory alive with love, laughter, tears, and stories. He will be missed, but always loved and never forgotten.
