Valerie,
So shocked and sorry to hear of Don's tragic death. Delmer Dunn was so good to notify me immediately on hearing of it. Don was a great soul to have as a roommate our Junior year at Yale with Mike Carr and the late Morgan Brown. His personality was so winsome. The fall of our Junior year, the Yale football team had NINE(9!)football games in a row at home before traveling to Cambridge for its final game against Harvard.

Dear Valerie,
I am saddened and still by the loss of Donald. I wish to express my deepest condolences to you and all of his family & friends. He was a good friend and a kind soul. I will miss his smile and energy. Donald was a great champion of the health and well-being of not only the music and art community, but the world as a whole. He has built a great foundation of hope and caring for all of us to build upon. His work will continue through his example.

John Gerlach's family noticed Don's obit in the paper and notified him--and he me, etc.
Bob Oliver is our class chronicler (if there is such a word) and might want to contact you as he drafts the notice for Yale.
Do you have any problem with this?
Should you want to contact Bob directly, I have his e-mail. (And I'm sure his data is in the Directory.)
I'm sure you know Don stopped by to visit when he was wrapping Nancie's affairs up.
It was nice to catch...
