I bowled with Don and we kept in contact when I moved to Ohio. We did a lot bowling together. Time goes by and I regret I haven't kept in contact with him. I'm truly sorry for loss and my friend is gone. Please accept my condolences> He was a great guy!!!

Quiet and thoughtful, nerdy but funny, hard to believe our high school years are so far in the past and our classmates already leaving us.
