Not sure what to say?

My condolences to all. What a life! I will always remember your dad being astonished I had never tried White Castle after drinking all night so he made a run and brought him back to the house well we all know what comes the next day! Lol. Have peace in your good memories.

I remember the day Dad and I drove down to Lake of the Ozarks to take delivery of the 21´ Celebrity bow rider boat he´s see sitting in the pic attached. I dropped him off at the marina just a couple miles from Bagnell Dam. As soon as the sales rep completed the walk through, gave Dad the keys and he pulled away from the dock, I remember vividly black thunder storm clouds building above. As I began my drive back to Malibu Shores Condominiums I could see Dad pull out into the main channel...

My mother, Shirley Ponte, would like to extend her sincere condolences. She has fond memories of you both. May God bless you and keep you in his hands.

Dear Joanne, so sorry for your loss and our loss of such a warm, loving, funny man. My years in St Louis were gifted by you and Don and your visits to Jacksonville filled with love and laughter. Don is such a gift to so many. I hope in your loss and your children´s loss that Don´s sweet memory will bring smiles thru the years. Love Jim and Ouise

Dawn, I'm so sorry about your dad. He was always such a nice man to allow us. I know you'll miss him. My sympathies to your family.

This is how I will always remember him! Joan and family you have my deepest sympathy. He will always be with you in your heart. Don is home and free.

Joan and family, Al and I are very sorry to hear of Don´s passing. We had many fun times with you both. God bless you and your wonderful family.
