Dear Otis and Roberta,

We were heartbroken to hear of Don’s passing. He was a kind man, a great cousin, the steadiest of co-worker up at Mt. Rainier and a good friend. We will miss him very much.

You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Otis and Roberta,

We are sorry to hear of Don's passing.
After reading the entries from so many people in different places, it was obvious that Don offered so much to others in this life time. He will be missed. So, now it is time to cherish those memories.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Otis and Roberta,

Otis, Roberta and Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. We are so sorry to hear of your loss, but so encouraged by what others have written to feel like we know him too. May God Bless you all! Larry and Sandi Anderson

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

to Hay family,and Jim & Nancy.

It has been a long, long time since I last saw Don but I have very happy memories of being his friend. Halloween parties, playing cards, those long winters we all spent together as neighbors at NPI and Paradise. Don was always right there with his gentle humor and easy going attitude. He will always be a part of the history of the mountain, especially at Paradise Inn, NPI and Sunrise. I will always think of him when I visit. My sincere condolences to his family.

Dear Cliff, Your brother will now find all the Steelhead in the rivers that he wants. Our sympathy to you and your parents
