Not sure what to say?

I knew Don, primarily as a musician. He was always a very genial, gentleman, and WOW; did he ever play!! So gifted a man; he will be missed, very much.

A multitalented man. Your family is justly proud of Don.

Always willing and able to show others wonderful and interesting things. I remember so vividly being in his plane and taking photos around Lake Ontario. Don loved teaching-about flying, hunting, music and farming mostly. Found bass ponds for the kids to fish. Played music with his children and grandchildren, proudly attending their concerts, A curious, energetic life-long learner, who loved to share knowledge and expertise with family and friends alike.

Don and Marge were wonderful friends. I recounted Don's considerable impact on my political thought through his "Rural Murals" decades ago on Facebook just days before Don passed away. Don and Marge were special people and will leave this life all the better for their having been here! Our sincere sympathy to their loved ones...

I'm sad to hear of his passing. My sympathies to the family. I've known Don for as long as I can remember through my Dad who was a businessman in Wolcott. He will be missed but forever in our hearts.

My thoughts and prayers are with Marge and all the family. He was a wonderful man and a friend of my Mom.

So sorry to hear of your loss, Mrs. Hunt, and family. Prayers for peace and comfort at this time.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Don's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the whole Hunt family. He was a wonderful human being and touched the lives of many.

Uncle Don will be missed. He always had something interesting going on, whether it was flying, showing the 4 oldest girls and cousins how to shoot, key person in starting wavac and more. I treasure my time upstate as a kid. Memories are wonderful.
