Dear Don

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your dad. Reading his story made me think back to fond memories at your house on Guilford Road, enjoying your mom's home baked cookies, and our days at First Free. I was honored to have known your dad, and reminded again what an incredibly great generation he was a part of. Praying that your time of mourning will be a rich time together as a family. Please greet you mom, Dan, and Debbie for me. Blessings.
