Don, my time spent with you was relatively short, however, you managed to steal my heart from the very beginning. There was a heart connection that happened so effortlessly that I knew I was meant to come and help out in whatever small way I could. Never have I met a man who was filled with such love, kindness and such a wonderful co operative nature as you had. You were always giving even though your care takers were there to take care of you. You would always ask “ what do you want me to do?” And you would do it. Or you’d say “ what do you think I should do?” And again you would do it. This was usually at bedtime as I was the overnight care giver. I’d get him tucked in and he’d say “ what should I do now?” If he wasn’t tired, we’d watch some TV ( he loved Irish music shows or nature shows), sing some of his favourite songs, and then say our prayers. If he looked tired I’d suggest he put away any thoughts of the day and focus on his loving wife Dorie and think about his three daughters who have embodied their father’s traits and close his eyes and have sweet dreams. He’d close his eyes and tell me that he could do that.
It’s hard not to love a man like Don and all who knew him in any capacity will miss him but he has left wonderful memories behind for family and friends and for the rest of the world, he has left his embodiment of love, faith, compassion and positivity in his three daughters, Angela, Karen and Mary-Theresa.

My deepest condolences to Dory, Angie, Karen, Mary Theresa, and their families Don was one of the sweetest souls I have ever had the honor to care for. His love for God, his wife, and his family was evident upon a brief conversation with him. He will be missed by all. I am Jealous of the Angels https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0n67dSG35L4
