Not sure what to say?

I knew Don from my time at Travel Fun. He was such a pleasure and could talk to anyone and make them feel like they were the center of the his world. He taught me that there is always more than one way to look at something. I am lucky to have had the chance to know him.
To Dorothy, Jackie and family, my condolences and I know that time will heal your hearts.
God be with you in this time of grief.

Dear Dorothy & Family. Our deepest condolences. Only wish we could have heard sooner so we could have attended the services. Don truly was an exceptional person;always left one feeling good about life;his joy & energy were infectious. I have many fond memories of Don when I was on the School Board as he set the standard for what a teacher & an administrator should be. The world will be smaller now.

Dear Dorothy and family.
Many long years ago Don and you both taught in Duchess. I was one of Don's students. My last name was Lake then and I remember Don for his teaching abilities and humor. So sorry for you loss. Your children will be your salvation and I'm very happy to have five as my life revolves around them.
Deepest sympathy.

Oh what a great time we had - riding and falling off horses, planting trees with Matthew Good Dagger, landscaping and barn fixing, walking and talking the fence lines, laughing at joke upon joke...always a smile with this man, always a kind word, good advice and a genuine desire to help and "be there".
It's been 35 years of positive friendship and his endless wry humour...
There are so many who will miss this "Farmer, outstanding in his Field" Truly a great man and a blessing to those...

So sorry to hear about Don's passing. Our deepest sympathy for your loss. Our prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

Dear Mrs. MacInnis and family,

So very sorry to hear the news about Mr. MacInnis. It was clear to us he was a close and treasured friend of our parents. You'll smile to know we were always intrigued about where the nickname "Farm" came from. A wonderful person with a great sense of humour - he will definitely be missed. On behalf of our parents (who are on their way back to Calgary) our thoughts and prayers are with you.

we are sorry for lost you are in our thoughts and prayers

Dorothy, Joan and family, We were saddened to hear of Don's passing. The Hughes kept us informed about what you were up to. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time.

Ladies, and I mean all of you, I am so sorry to hear of Mr. MacInnis' passing away. He was "one of those teachers that made a difference in my life". I know I am really dating myself but He was my very first "friend" when I started grade one in 1962 - when I am pretty sure there was nobody living in the west side of Southwood but our family. I believe I had one brother for just about every one of the "sisters" and following that Joan became an absolutely excellent helper with my aspergers...
