Dear Marge and Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I have fond memories of Don as person who was always willing to share his wisdom with me. He touched so many and will be missed by all.

I was in high school during the exciting Cazzie Russell era of U-M basketball lore, 1964-66. At the conclusion of the successful '64-'65 season, a U-M basketball banquet was held at the Michigan Union. I took my $20 for two tickets to Mr. Robinson, the banquet chair.

Dear Marge and family,
Andy and I were so saddened to hear of Don's death. Our life and our memories are full of the good times we had together. We even managed to laugh at our putting! We are so sorry that we cannot attend the service for Don. We are leaving today (Friday) with three couples to go out of the country. Please know our prayers, thoughts and love go to you all.

Linda & Doug,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Kay Brown & Jeanine Harris
