We were so sorry to hear about Don's passing. He was a wonderful person and loved by all who knew him. Sorry we didn't find out sooner to make arrangements to be there. Mom really isn't able to do much visiting at this time, she has just came thru a pretty bad sick spell and a week in the hospital. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with the family thru these tough times.
