Not sure what to say?

Very strong and powerful man,Great father and a second father i looked up to, he was a world hero, a marine to the T, he will always be missed.I am a better person knowing I met him in my lifetime. RIP SIR!!!

God bless you Don. No doubt in your new deployment you'll be standing guard at the Pearly Gates.

Lauranne, my condolences to you. My mother, Mary Park, would also send her condolences were she not in deep dementia. I know she and my late father always held you and your husband in high regard. Don's biography is a great testament to the very meaningful life he led: a great patriot and civic leader. We are all the richer for his selflessness.

Dear Aunt Pip and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Our opportunities to be together with you and Uncle Don have been far too few, but each one has made an indelible impression on our family. We are thinking about you and praying for your family at this tender time. With much love, Mike, Debbie, Michael, Sarah, Emily, James, Kelley, Jessica and Anna.

Pip and Jodi, My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Don was a great guy and an asset to the community.

Pip and family: We share your grief of the loss of a fine man, a true patriot and an always warm friend. As a member of the "greatest generation" he, like the rest of his ilk will be sorely missed. We can all learn so much from this group of proud Americans and what they did to keep us free. Thank you Don!
