I was so very sad to hear of Dons Passing. He was such a force of nature that I just never thought of him as quite mortal. Even though when we were working together he was better than twice my age, he could work circles around me, and everyone else. Don was what I call a complete package. He had all of the qualities that draw people to him. Looks, but not the ego, brains and common sense. Plus a work ethic born of the Depression. And the humbleness that came from his time in the Pacific during WWII. What a Great Man and a Great Life. I am So Sorry for your loss Gloria, Don, and Andy.Love Always and I Hope to See You All again after I get off this dynamo.
