Uncle Don was actually my mothers cousin but I spent some of the best summers of my youth at his cabin at the lake. Thank you Don for developing my love of fishing, I have nothing but good memories of you and Connie. Rest in Peace

Was always a pleasure to work with Don at Honeywell. We never talked about his nor my previous military experience but wish I had. My sincere condolences to the entire family. God Bless.

I regret not being close enough to get there for the funeral. My thoughts are with you and all the cousins and Tom and Donna. My memories are all good of Uncle Don. He was a very nice man and he will be sadly missed.

Don, may God Bless Your Soul. I'm going to miss you dearly. You were the first friend I met when I moved into 7064 Unity. You looked out for me because you knew I was a single young lady. I appreciate all the talks we had when I saw you walking your dog. I remember when you found my mail in the snow at the end of the road (those kids were going through the mail boxes) and you brought it to me;they were mostly bills,that probably were not going to get paid on time, but because you were looking...
