Don was a really great guy! My family and I had the pleasure of knowing him since the mid 2000's. We shared a lot of laughs for sure. Rest in God's Eternal Peace, Don. Until we meet again.

I just found out by coming across of Don's obituary tonight as Don was a good friend of mine and he was such a good hearted person and he loved his family and friends. He would come to my church once in a while and he loved the Lord besides his family and friends. He loved going to the Shoreline Trolley Museum with me and had been a member and riding the trolley cars. He will truly be missed by all. RIP Don
