I'm so sorry for your loss. I met Don When I joined the KC's. We also spent many times discussing the "sports world" while doing our work-outs at the YMCA. Don was known as a strong family man, a man of faith and kindness. I'm proud to call him a true friend.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
