Not sure what to say?

Hi Dad, I can't believe it's been this long already. I still and always will miss you so much. I think about how silly you were and you're funny sense of humor. Of course you loved your jokes more than anyone else but that's part of what we loved about you. I miss our phone calls and you helping me through different traumas in my life. In short...I just miss you!! I Love You... Linda

It's so hard to believe it's been this long, since I've heard your voice, seen your smile and felt the peace and love that you always shared so freely. I know you're loving all the beautiful golf courses in heaven, and I'm happy for that, but, I sure miss you my friend. You always knew just what to say to make me smile, or feel better when things were tough. Sail on, in peace, and enjoy your golf games, my friend. I will always love you.

I miss you my friend

Don was such a strong, loving influence in my life. I actually told him once, I don't know if I could breathe if I didn't know you were there. Well, time has shown that I can, but with each breath that I am eternally grateful to have had such an amazing man as my dear friend. I will always love and remember you Don.

I worked for Don in the mid 90's. He was always wise, hugely kind to all and sundry, open minded and embodied all that was special about San Francisco.

You passed on my B-Day Don & did not wave goodbye, or maybe I was just tooo busy taking wine inventory. You made me laugh & always made my day....you are loved & missed, Bon voyage Don....see you beyond the sea....or a last toast at Lefty's.....

God Bless you Don, you left the world a better place thanks to your love, humor and kindness. You will be missed!

My Dear Friend Don, You made the world a better place, every single day. You always made people smile, laugh and just feel good. You had an amazing gift of showing people they mattered. A true friend no matter where you'd been, or when you'd spoken last. I can't thank you enough for teaching me what the unconditional love of a true friend is. I was very blessed to call you my friend and I will never forget you.

Enjoy the golf games in heaven, with warm sunshine on your shoulders,...
