Donald John VanderKooi Jr.

My Sincere Condolences
I work with all the VanderKooi brothers- but with Don, Ron and Charlie Barnes at Howmet Plant 2 when I first started in this business. I remember Don as a good friend and one who helped out a "rookie" who needed it. We saw each other over the years in Whitehall when I would visit from Hampton- and always had that Plant 2 bond. He was a great role model professionally but even a better one personaly. I have great memories of those folks back then and think fondly of...

My sincerest condolences to Judy and your whole family. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult this time. Don was a good friend, that I had the pleasure of working with at Howmet for many years.

My sincerest condolences. Don and I were coworkers for many years in both plants 3 and 4. He was a good friend. My thoughts and prayers are with Judy, the children, and brothers, Steve, Ron and Mark all with whom I also had the pleasure of working with.
