Don at the Animas. He is still here in Spirit.

Sharon, I just learned accidentally about Don's death. I am so sorry to hear this. I will try to reach you by phone, but I can be reached at [email protected]. I am searching for Rosie, have found some almost current address. Warm regards, Ann (Johnson) Frisch from Idaho,

My all time favorite professor, twinkle in his eye, took us to the Yucatan starting a long term interest in Mayan culture. Kind of encouraged thinking outside the box with the Spaceship Earth seminar and encouraged a conservation ethic that I have lived and shared professionally. Bien Viaje! Perhaps you will meet up with that little lost perro Fifi in the afterlife!

Don was a great friend, smart, funny, caring, I was lucky to know him for so many years. Bless your family. You gave them love and kindness.

You taught me compassion, commitment, and caring about the natural world and how to help our Mother Earth through small but very important actions. It was the Anthropology Club that I went with on my first trip down the San Juan River in Utah. Don was one of the good guys, I wish there...
