Phlip Donald "Don" Scalzo

Don was a good, and honorable man, although he built many duplexes on the beach he sold us his personal duplex on Bradenton Beach, back in 1996. On the way back from the closing he confided in me that he was happy to sell it to Beach people because we know how it goes out there, and if it was to flood (which it did last fall) that we wouldn´t hold him to blame, which we didn´t, because that´s how it goes out here, and we are still here!

Lovely memories of a wonderful friend and sailing buddy. We won the Sarasota to Venice cup in 1977, sailing cat paws in light air in Don's 16 Ft Hobie Cat. Don was a gifted artist. I had several of his paintings for many years, and enjoyed them immensely. Tonight I thought of him and his wonderful son Paul. Sad to learn that Don died so long ago. I'll always have good memories of him and Paul. We had great fun in Sarasota. Don met my parents and a sister, whose wedding reception we attended...

Sorry to hear about Don's demise. Anne and I met him at Barth Gathering in Fla and will miss him dearly. Ray and Anne McHan, Murphy, NC.

Sorry to hear the news about Uncle John. My sympathies and prayers go out to all of you.
