Dear, dear June and family. By happenstance, I today was looking up the Obituary of an acquaintance I just this afternoon learned had passed away and found Don's. God works in mysterious ways! I am so sorry for your loss but happy to have had the chance to meet and get to know him. I know you had a wonderful life together. He will be missed but take solace in the fact he is at peace with our Lord. God bless you and your family
