Mrs. Branham: Sharing your grief and sadness on your loss of Don. Our community lost a great man and his great knowledge that he possesSed in dealing with the problems of our community was without equal. I had the privilege of working for him at Modine and it was a pleasure to work with such a wonderful and talented individual. May GOD comfort you and your family as only HE CAN.

Respectfully: Wes Davis

Dear Mrs. Branham and Family - I feel as if I have lost a member of my own family. Don Branham was the kind of neighbor everyone prays for, but very few receive. I will fondly hold images of Don walking Little Liza Jane with me forever. Don was truly a man that brought joy to many lives and he will be sadly missed by all that knew him.

Don, the Patriarch of "The Hardees Gang".

Dear Ada and Family ~ We are very sad for your loss, AND ours. Don was a wonderful person, and I will never forget the support he gave me on many occasions. We will miss seeing his smile and hearing his little quips at Hardees every morning, but we rejoice that he is now in a far better place and will suffer no more. Our prayers are with you and your family as you face the days ahead, but we know that God will never leave you alone and will be there to provide the strength you need. We love you all.
