Dear Aaronson family, I have the best memories of times spent with generations of Aaronsons. My dad, Murph Rubenstein, was uncle and great uncle to you all. We celebrated every occasion as family. I´m so sorry to hear of Donald´s passing. My sincere condolences.

Debbie my deepest condolences to you and your family May your Father´s Memory Be Eternal

Debbie Polin and Aaronson Family, I was so sad to hear of your loss. My deepest condolences to you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

He was a wonderful, caring, sympathetic, listening, professional who will live in our memories,,, ,

Strange, I was just thinking about Don the other day. He's the first name in my "contacts" cell phone list and I was remembering back when we both were active at Lutheran General. I was on the Medical Staff cabinet when Don was president. I worked with Don during his phase of Quality Improvement at the hospital as well. Later, when I became Advocate's Chief Medical Information Officer and Don had gone back to get his nth degree (this one the MPH) we worked together on a number of projects...

Our sincere condolences to all the family of our dear friend, Donald. We have been close friends for 60 years and have shared many wonderful moments together, happily and with great respect and love for each other!
