Not sure what to say?

Don was a friend for 50 years. We worked together for 30 plus years. Don was a special friend you could always count on. I lost count of the many lunches we shared up to just two months ago. When he and Donna was in Japan We met every couple month's. The best meals in Japan were always at there home. Heaven has a very special couple. Larry Rapp

Don was a good friend with a great outgoing and outspoken personality I played many rounds of golf with him and a quite a few games of cards. He always claimed his good fortune was because he sweep out the church each week and I believed him. He will be missed very much.

Heaven will be a happier place since Don was the 'Spirit' of the Smith Family, with his sense of fun and contagious 'Smith Laugh'. The 'Smith' Clan will never quite be the same, but hopefully will keep his fun spirit and zest for life. Donna and Don were great role models for all, including his extended family. Will be missed by all who had the pleasure of having them touch our lives.

I am so sorry that Don (Smitty) has passed, but know he is with Donna and his family. Knew Smitty for about, 70 years, grew up with him, loved him, and will miss our remembering things. My love is with the family he so dearly loved.
