Don was a fine man. He played music like he lived his life, with great sensitivity and passion. We were all lucky to share this earthly stage with him and he made each of us a better player. His song goes on......

Don was a wonderful person to work with and always had a smile with great humor to follow that smile..no matter what the situation. He was such a devoted father and loved Eric more than anything. Don will be deeply missed and we will always remember him in his "green hornet" truck. You will be missed Hoodsie!!! Rock on!!

Don was one of the kindest and funniest men I have ever had the wonderful experience to know. It was my honor to have been able to call him my friend. May he whisper punchlines in our ears from on high. Rest in peace, my friend.

"Don, "Your friend is your needs answered. He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving. And he is your board and your fireside. For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace". Don was my friend, OHS Class of 1970, Tim Ryan"

For the last six years, I was luck to work with Don. He was a wonderful man who was always smiling. He and I spent many hours talking about our sons and how much they mean to us. His number one job was Dad and he loved it. I will miss him very much.

Don was an awesome guy. He was always good for a talk about cars or guitars. I loved the drawings he would leave on notes for his son Eric. Eric is one of the best people I know and his dad has done an incredible job as a father. We will miss you "secret agent man"
