Mr. Donald Leroy Chrispens

We met and fell in love 24 years ago, when you took me to your favorite place on earth, Yosemite National Park. We shared a love of nature, hiking, traveling, photography, and antiques. I cherish all the great times we had together. And though we did not have the opportunity to grow old together, you will always be in my heart. Your legacy will live on in the lives of your grandchildren.

My condolences to your family. It was a big surprise to see the obituary of my teenage neighbor in Cedar Lake. I haven't seen any of the Chrispens family since moving away from there and I had no idea that Don lived in this area of the world. I have good memories of the Chrispens family and I wish you all the comfort of God's love.

My deepest sympathy, Don was a very special co-worker and a friend to all.

I'm grateful for the 41 years of great memories I will always miss you and will never forget all the memories we shared Love you Always

Don was a grat guy, and made working at the VA when I was a new employee fun and welcoming. He was a good friend, we had many discussions over who was the best College Football team in the State was. Always enjoyed conversations with him , and his raw spirit in the Outdoors. I am so sorry for his passing. God Bless you Don, and comfort your loved ones;

This is sad news. Don was a character and always great to talk too. He helped me accomplish my job at VA many times with a wise crack here and there.

I enjoyed working with Don at the Va for many years. He will be missed very much.

I'm very sorry to hear of Don's passing, He's one of the first people that I rember from when I first started working at the VA. Condolences to his Family, May you find comfort at this time of loss. Rest In Peace Don.
