Not sure what to say?

I am going to miss Don immensely during the next family get together.
Don is not gone however, as I see his fun loving spirit living on in his family today.
Judy, our family wishes you the best during this time of transitions.

John, Jim, and Mrs. McGovern- I am so sorry to hear of your father/husband's passing. I have great memories of your Dad taking us tubing on Lake Erie and always having a kind word whenever I saw him back in our Halcyon Drive days. He will be missed.

I will raise my glass in honer of a great man , great husband , great father and grandfather, and especially to me a great great friend and in many ways my mentor , I will forever love you MAC God bless his wonderful family .❤

To John and the McGovern Family.
My condolences and prayers for your loss.

So sorry to hear about Don's passing. Your obit describes him perfectly. We had so many good times with Don and Judy. He will be missed. As usual, Judy took good care of Don with class and grace. All our love Peg and Frank DiMarco

To the McGovern Family,

My deepest condolences for your loss of a great man.

I got to know Don during the late 1970s. Although we did not agree on everything we had many similarities. He is responsible for my becoming a Republican. It took me a few years, but he eventually won me over.

Likewise, I can attest that everything describing him in his obituary is spot on, he will be missed. Since I now reside in Tucson, Az., I will not be able to attend any services. God Bless...
