I always loved coming to the Creighton & Sons, a place magical floral beauty and having moment to chat with Donald. He was fun of wonderful stories and always had a special moment for my little sons when they accompanied me. Sadly our world has lost another wonderful creative individual it can never replace....

I'm so sorry to hear of your loved and deepest condolences are extended to you. Something that's helped me through the death of loved ones is to reflect on 1 Corinthians 15:26.

My thoughts and prayers go out to to the entire family of Donald at this. Whenever I was around Don, he was never anything but very nice and chatty with me. Around when I first met him, He gave me one of his spider plants he still had from his family business years ago, "just because he thought I would like it." Little did he know, I'm normally a killer of all plants.
Still got it Don!!!
