Not sure what to say?

As a former staff member of the Wellstead, Cardinal Crest wing, it's been a long time since I've seen Don, for I only knew him for a few months. I was thinking of him today, and wondered what ever happened to Don and Arleen. I remember what you said to me Arleen, you told me that I will be a great mother someday, and that really touched me. You're a woman of inspiration to us all, and I'm sad to see Don is gone, but I'm grateful he's resting peacefully.
God Bless your family.

All of my love and prayers during this time. I am honored to have spent so much time with Don and your family over the past eight years. I am thankful to have the fond memories of a wonderful person who loved his family. Thinking of you all!

To Don's Family,

I have fond memories of Don coming down to the job trailer and telling stories while he and Arlene were building their home in Westbranch. When Kathy built her home, Don continued with the stories. He was very entertaining and interesting. He was very proud of his family! My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Arlene and Family,

You are in our prayers and our thoughts as you say a temporary goodbye to such a wonderful man. Don will always be special to us.

God bless,

Dr. Chuck and Janie Plante

Keith, Kevin & Family,
Although having only known the Stotts family, for a short period of time, it is apparent that your father instilled quality values. I also lost my father, when I was 25, to Cancer after a three year battle. Keep the good thoughts and don't forget - they are angels on our shoulders every day - use them for inspiration. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone and if there is ever anything we can do - don't hesitate to call. God Bless & remember the good times.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
