Don, you will be forever remembered for the service you gave to our country, to the community with bike repairs and donations. We loved visiting and getting to ride the lawn mover down the slopes of your back yard. Your nieces loved the time they got to sled down your yard in the snow in December of 2007. I will miss our special time spent together, sitting at the kitchen table, just talking as we admired the view of the back yard with cups of coffee in hand! Rest in peace and please tell the family hello!
With all our love,
Ginny and Tom Sisley
