Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure of learning clarinet and saxophone from Mr. Cantwell. He passed on his passion and love of playing to me and I´m very thankful I was able to learn from him. I´m very sorry to hear that he has passed away, my thoughts are with his family.

Always enjoyed playing in bands led by Don. Such a legacy.

Loved hearing him play.

Mr. Cantwell was the greatest!! My Mom and Dad enjoyed his band so much! Bob, please accept my condolences. Mike Dallos

So sorry to read of Don´s passing. Sending you and your family my sincerest sympathy.

I previously played clarinet with Don in the Floyd band and was always inspired by his talents. My friend Kathy Baldwin took lessons with him and spoke very highly of him. I am so saddened to hear of his passing and I hope his legacy can live on to inspire future musicians. My heart is with his family and loved ones as they celebrate a life well lived.

Lived a very good and long life.
