Not sure what to say?

Such an amazing engineer and man. He always said he'd work as long as he was having fun, which was many years! Many of which we had the pleasure of working with him.

I always looked forward to working with Don. Over the year's, I knew from experience, that whatever the challenge we had before us, it would go as smooth as possible. Don's forward planning, heads up and foresight....and his humor made him a pleasure to work with. He would roll up his shirt sleeves and dig right in if need be....Rest in peace Don, you've earned it....

Although I worked for different companies, I had the pleasure and honor of working with Don on several advanced SAR projects that made a world of difference during the cold war years. He is now at peace with Jesus and his heavenly Father.

I wont be around for the ceremony but ten years ago or so I gave you an award called one in a thousand. At that ceremony I said you were really one of a kind. It was a pleasure working with you Jerry

Don was a guiding light for everyone at the Goodyear, AZ facility. His hard work and dedication was an inspiration to all. My condolences to his family and to his many friends and co-workers. We will miss him.

Don was a true gentleman. It was a pleasure working with him. I often flew Don in the Lockheed Martin Sabreliner engineering aircraft. I had the pleasure of accompanying him on several engineering deployments. A great man.

I was fortunate to have met him. God Bless you all!
