Don was one of the truly "good people" of this world.
He will be missed.

What magnificent German Shepherds Don had! And what a noble thing he did with the K-9 unit for Grand Rapids. Many thanks for all he did and for our GSD, Rocky. Our sincere sympathy to Don's family and friends.

I ENJOYED WORKING WITH HIM ,A TRUE FRIEND INDEED!! MY DEEPEST SYYMPATHY TO THE FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS ,

May God's grace be with you all.

God Bless Don & his wonderful K9 Unit. He was a good friend of my dad Sgt Lewis Zahm, and got my sister interested in training dogs (she has 17) out in Washington State.
