Not sure what to say?

Don and I use to spend at least a week or two for years. Many side trips and lots of fun. We kept in touch often, not often enough, but he called me just a few days before he passed. We lost him too soon and think about him often. Hurts me that I was not able to make his funeral. May he rest in peace!

Don and I shared many summer vacations together in our youth in Rhode Island and New Hampshire. We had great times together and Don will be missed. May he rest in Peace.

Don was an enjoyable part of our Hinsdale/Ogden office for many years. He brought a warm friendly vibe to everyone around him. We will remember with a smile his "traveling Shapiros" as part of our CB Golf League. We will be out of town for his Celebration of Life but send our prayers to his family. Rest in peace Don!

Don was a great friend when I got started in the real estate business. I especially enjoyed our many conversations about the Cubs. RIP my friend.

Don was part of the Oakhill group riding the bus to Cranston West together for 6 years; I was part of that group as well and remember him as a kind and gentle person. My husband and I have great memories of the 50th CHSW '64 reunion when we shared the table with Don and had a lovely evening talking over old times and new. Ginny Nardone

My deepest sympathies on Don´s passing. He and I were classmates at Cranston West. Had several nice conversations during our school days and thought he was one of the nicer members of our class. God Bless Don and the entire Burque family

Don was our realtor on several occasions. He was such a kind man. He checked in on us and we enjoyed a dinner or two together. My husband and I will remember him. He loved his pets and ours as well. May you feel God's comfort and peace. He will be missed.

Don was my uncle and I always remember him as a kind and fun adult in my life when I was a kid. He was silly and animated and loved to laugh. And he taught me how to mix a blue whale cocktail, which hasn´t come in that handy as you don´t see blue midori often, but I appreciated that he knew how to mark an occasion. We used to watch I Love Lucy together and he would encourage us to parrot the funniest lines so we could laugh again! I think of his charming smile often and while he will be...
