One of my very best friends in the world. Don was one of my first bosses when I went to work for the Gazette-Telegraph in Colorado Springs in 1982. He took me in like a father would, knowing I was 20 yrs old and a long way from home. We skied, we laughed, we played tennis, we laughed even more, we golfed and laughed until it hurt.

I will truly miss this man!!
