Dear Bonnie:
Thinking about you today, and Mr. Don. It's still hard to not have him hear to pick up the phone and talk. I miss him, and I hope that you're doing o.k. We'd like to visit next time we're in Tucson. I think it will be in the fall. Love to you, and missing Mr. Don too.

Our Deepest Sympathy,
Uncle Don will be miss. We went to Rocky point with the three wheelers one weekend and visited his friends down there, we made a race track
on the beach. He also came and watch me play High School Basketball
when i was around the Tucson area.
He called one time his car had broke down and he stop bye my house to work on it. That was the only time he stop back here to see me. He called me this last fall pasting threw
Springfield and he told me some jokes and we had a few last laughs.
He had never meet a stranger he talk to everybody i well miss you
Uncle Don.

Dear Bonnie,
We will never forget the wonderful hospitality you and Don showed us when we visited you in Tucson. Don's memory, of very distant happenings, never ceased to amaze us. He could remember dates, and places, better than anyone we've ever known. You are always in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless.

Dearest Aunt Bonnie - I have loved reading these wonderful notes about Uncle Don. He was such a huge part of my life and so many others; always willing to listen, chat and help. He sure gave 100% to everything. Charles, William, Christian and I will miss him dearly. See you soon,

Dearest Bonnie, Don's spirit lives on in all our hearts. What a terrific guy! His memory is indelibly etched in my heart. He always expressed so much joy and good humor. I loved the twinkle in his eye and his spirit of adventure reflected in his amazing stories and life experiences. His kindness and generosity, warm bear hugs, and willingness to help others will always be remembered. I will miss his friendly emails and funny jokes as well. My heart goes out to you in love and support. I am here for you if there is anything I can do to be of help. Love, Sallee & family

Bonnie: Don was a true friend to our Paisano Golf Crew here in Crystal Falls. We enjoyed his company at our summer parties and he always made sure there were lots of pictures and DESERT! We will miss Don and good memories will endure.

Talk about an INCREDIBLE man! My recall of Mr. Don goes back four decades to my childhood days. I'm not sure how he and my parents met, however, I do know there was NEVER a dull moment when he visited.
His repetoire of jokes and stories were endlesss. His ability to communicate and impact any ethnic or age group in a positive way was a work of art!
He loved life, his family, and any adventure that crossed his path. It's hard to imagine his passing. However one thing is for sure, he will be greatly missed. He has made an impressionable impact on many of our lives! His life was not s speck of dust on the record of time, but, a significant positive scratch on the record of time.
My condolences to Bonnie, Eric, and Keith!
Love,

Bonnie, it's so hard to Imagine he's gone as we both were keeping in touch with the family. I will miss his emails for sure. I have fond memories of Aunt Leah and my grandparents living across from each other and visiting both places.
take care and God bless your family

Bonny: We have so much love for you and Don both. Our most treasured "grandbaby" pictures came from his camera! Wanda especially loved sharing railroad stories with Don. Let us always remember to smile and take a snapshot of every memory--Don will be there with us.
Love always, Charles and Wanda Wunder

Bonnie:
So glad to have known you both. The wooden stool Don made will always remind me how special, how tall he was and how tall I am not! Please when you travel to CF let's have a "girls night." Don would want that.
Lean on the "author of your faith" during these quiet times. Draw from your friends.
Love,
Bev

Dear Bonnie
Don will be remembered for his wonderful wit and his love of life. He always knew when someone needed a funny email or just to be told that they are special and loved. His kindness will not be forgotten. I remember Don showing my daughters how to ride an ATV. He did it with guto!
Thinking of you and remembering the both of you together. You were a great team! Much love,

Dear Bonnie,
Don use to always send me email jokes and funny forwards. Now I know why I started missing them! I just this moment found out about Don's passing. He had a warm and magnanimous character and all those who knew him will miss him. God is Good and Life is Eternal.

Wanted to get in here before there were too many somber entries.
I'll always think of Don as a fun guy with a vibrant love of life (and Bonnie).
Met him on a cruise some years ago and struck up a memorable e-mail relationship, focusing on the sunny side of being alive.
