So sorry to hear of Don´s passing. I have many good memories of Don while he lived in Payne. Spent a lot of time at his house growing up.

Bill, Deb , Tyler and family Im so sorry about Donnie. He was my rock always, my best friend! He was always there when I needed him and we always had a great time together. I will always remember coaching, watching game , breakfast, Veterans Day, holidays, watching all high school sports including the big Dover and Massillon games, dinners, stories and most important our coffee chats. Don was a true friend, I never will forget him. My heart breaks knowing we will be without him. Im here if you guys need anything , especially for Tyler and Maria. Your Dad always talked and cared about you kids. All of you folks are in my prayers. God Bless- Darin Poe
