The Dutton family had a friendship with Don that spanned several decades, began with Don's dedication to the Anaheim community as a businessman. His public service is well documented and accomplishments will be a legacy to all of us in Anaheim/Orange County. His wonderful smile and cheerful personality will long be remembered by all who knew him... And will live in our hearts for his friendship and loyalty to our family.

Upon my return from Operation Desert Storm in '91, Supervisor Don, shook my hand & thanked me with a County proclamation. As a County employee/Army Reservist, it was an honor to be recognized by not only a great Supervisor, but a fellow combat veteran.

When I moved to Anaheim in 1985 I called Don
to assist with an issue no one else could solve;
within days all was well along with a nice note from him
about service to the community...
Whenever we would see one another a chuckle
or two would always be in order especially when we tried to remember what the request was!
Don was all about community service...
Thank you Don,

I had the pleasure of working with Mayor Don for a number of years. He helped us transform the 4,000 acre Louis Nohl Ranch into the beautiful Planned Community of Anaheim Hills.

As a County Supervisor, Don Roth became an important ally in the development of the public private partnership that established Orangewood Children's Home. In my role as the Director of the shelter, I knew Don had a soft spot in his heart for the plight of our abused and neglected children. After he left office it was my honor to follow him as the 4th District Supervisor on the Board of Supervisors. For many years I sat with Don at the Anaheim Prayer Breakfast and enjoyed my friendship with him.

I shall miss you, Don, you were a big part of our
family. Your War stories were fascinating and
showed how much you loved your country. You
were a great Naval Officer and Straight-Shooting
Politician.
We will all miss you,

Don, I adored you!
You were a wonderful soul, who loved his Country
and Duty. You had great empathy for all people,
and this is what made you a Shining Light in the
world of politics.
But, above all, YOU were my Knight in Shining Armor!
I will miss you,
Dianne
