Don was a bright light at Rice Elementary. He was a joy to work with and always willing to help out wherever needed. This wonderful man touched the lives of countless Tyler children in a positive way-especially those with no father figure at home. He will be missed.

Julia, Don was a great guy who put up with a houseful of silly junior high girls and always nice to us. I know he loved you so much and can only imagine how much he loved your girls and their kids. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers as you grieve his passing. He would want you to remember the wonderful times together. Love you, dear friend!
