I remember how Don enjoyed spending time with the younger generation. They were encouraged and became better people having known him.
Clearly, he had the heart of Jesus in caring and pointing them to a life of faith in our Lord.
I can only imagine his encounter with Jesus hearing the words we long to hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant."

As I remember Don I remember someone that was able to jump over the generation gaps with ease. He was a friend to all people rather rich or poor, of social status or homeless. Doesn't this sound like Jesus? Don loved and served his Lord and Savior fervently and I am comforted to know that He now sees Him face to face! Elizabeth Parker Kirouac

To say it simply, Don was a shining light. He was a light so bright, blinding me with the love of God when I was 12 years old as a struggling teenager, 42 years ago. Sincerely, he was one-of-a-kind in the best sense of the meaning. Every person who had the privilege of knowing Don, without doubt, is a better person today. This present world has lost a great champion, a kind-warrior who gave all he had to represent the God he loved so much. I would not be the man I am today without Don's love for me. Thank you Don!

Don was a true example of shining your Light and Love on to the world. I will always remember his kind,gentle manner and sincere heart from which his deep love of God flowed. His earthly existence perished with his body but hie eternal Light will continue within our hearts as a reminder that we are all here to Love.

Don was so dear to our family while we lived in Lexington, Kentucky that we considered him a member of the Parker family. Don was dearly loved by us and we cherish our time of being with him on this earth and we look forward to being with him again in Heaven.
Don was and is now and forever a bright star in God's family, too. And while he is missed here on earth we're sure the folks in Heaven are rejoicing with Don being there with them.

Uncle Don...my birthday twin!!! I remember looking forward to your call on my birthday because it was so easy for you to remember (February 25 is the best day!) You always were so warm and welcoming whenever we'd come visit you at Uncle Bill's house...I'm sure your love and wisdom of the guitar is what convinced Cindy and Kristen to pursue such paths as well (you'd be amazed if you heard them play - Kristen sings and plays in the church choir). I'm so sad I lost touch with you when you moved back to Roanoke but I know Linda and the family took well care of you. I'll never forget your smile or laughter...or that little song you taught me on the phone...You are greatly missed but I know you're singing and dancing on Heaven just as you were here. I love you <3
