Not sure what to say?

Don was extraordinary and wonderful in every way. He always had a glint in his eye and a ready smile. It was a privilege to know him. Among his many accomplishments, he took such delight in his charitable efforts, and his being a published poet. May his memory be for a blessing.

Mr.G is what I called him, he was one of the hardest working people I know and at the same time lived his life on his own terms! He was my guardian angel at one point that said he respected me cause I was shooting for the stars coming from poverty and he respected that! I will surely miss you and admire the life you were able to live love you always Mr.G always and thanks for many memories and getting me started eating oysters lol!

For almost 50 years Don helped me as a consigliere, on the most important issues of my business life. His advice was always obviously sensible and sometimes incredibly clever. Most importantly, with hindsight, his advice always emphasized the ethical alternatives. When we discussed the rest of his life it was clear that he was always trying to do the right thing. We played poker together , quite badly, but very entertainingly for 53 years. He was very very competitive and loved to explain...

I have known Don for a very short period of time. But in that time, Don made an impact on my family´s l. He was a wonderful generous man with a big heart. He opened his doors and helped my daughter with her tennis dreams. Syd loved the fun times on the court at the Dominican Republic with Don! He loved tennis and playing with the young kids! Don will be missed dearly.

Deepest heartfelt condolences to the Glazer family from Afshars. Don was truly a father figure to me and instrumental in all of my life successes. His open heart and wise counsel was unparalleled and his insights profound. May his legacy of loving-kindness continue, and may his beautiful soul rest in peace. Our love to Mollie and Liz and extended family.

My condolences to Don's family and to all of his friends. May Don live long in our memories of good times together. It was a pleasure and a privilege to get to know Don while working on legal opinions. His passion for everything he did was evident. He will be dearly missed.

Donny - You were untiring for so long helping and befriending so many who will miss you. I have your picture taken at our house, with a host of Pi Lam guys, hanging upstairs, where Dennis could look at it often. My sympathies to your family and friends.
