Not sure what to say?

It has been a pleasure to work in the same building you once did. I think about you all the time walking in the halls and walking in the back bay. I wonder of you smoked cigarettes next to the same tree I smoke by. My office will be the last ones to work; the building is on its last legs and will be torn down once we leave. But it is such a joy to be there and an awesome experience. I'll see you soon and you better be cooking ribs.

Diane, I don't know you, I do know, adore and respect Rebecca.
Thank you for your decency, courage, and love.

Don, you were my hero when I was growing . I loved seeing you in uniform was so impressive to me. Your dress blues and meddles and your deep voice to bark out orders. I was truly very proud of you
George Jr.

Losing someone we love is nothing easy, but having been able to take part in Don's life, has one realize how blessed we are.
Thank you, Byrum family, for being strong, especially in the face of adversity. Your resilience and strength are qualities Don would have admired.
May you always hold fond memories of your time together.

Sincerely, Diane Paulakis and family

I treasure my memories of times shared with cousins Don and Dick then more times shared with them and their families when we were all young.

I'm one of Don's grandchildren. I don't have many memories of him but i do have all of his love for me. It's sad that he is gone from here and another chapter has closed on the history of my life. But he's tucked away in my heart and always remembered in my mind. I still love him even though we're apart.

RIP Uncle Don, Big Rebecca and husband Pete.

I have very fond memories of Uncle Don. My prayers and thoughts to his family.

Rest In Peace Grandpa Don.

With Love, Your Grand-daughter her husband, and your great-grand-daughter.
