Don Jr. and Family,
Please accept sincere sympathy from all of your friends at Utica. The loss of any family member is a painful experience for everyone. Faith tells us that we can take comfort in knowing that they have been relieved of all pain and suffering and now reside in a better place..Probably watching UCONN games, The Yankees and NASCAR...waiting for some time in the future when they will be reunited with all of their friends and family.

Having just lost my father I can sympathize with your family's loss. He put up a couragous fight and is certainly in a place where there is no more pain. My only regret is I never was able to find him the beer can holder for his wheelchair. He was a great man with a devoted family. Rest In Peace Don.
