I worked with "DLMACDO" at the Bogan warehouse and he was one of my most favorite buddies. Such a great guy! He used to sing "Smokin' Boys Room" to me! Kimber, I pray the emptiness you feel in your heart will be filled with warm and loving memories of this amazing man. It was always fun to watch you two interact! God be with you, Kimber, and your family.

Don, I remember you as the sweet, shy young boy I first met in elementary school. I know you had a outrageous, funny side that you showed to your closest friends, including John Shick. You will be missed by those whose lives you touched and had a tremendous impact on. Rest in peace my friend.

You were a light of warm friendship in my life. The lord
put it out, but it still burns in my heart.

Few loved Don more than I did. We met in Kindergarten. Sixty-fours years is a life
time of memories. I could write here 'till
doomsday, and never begin to tell you how
much I will miss this wonderful guy. He was one of the kindest, funniest, and best friends the good lord could grant me. I'm grateful for our years together. Wait for me, Don. I'll be along presently.Until then:RIP.
