Not sure what to say?

We will always remember your smile, your laugh, and those stories, especially "The Battle of San Pablo Bay"! Rest in peace Don.

Don, Sr. was one of my heroes in this life. He, Trena, Don Jr., Dave, Pat, and Lea were very influential in helping to build my career in customer service over 25 years ago. I will always remember Don Sr.'s sweet smile and jovial demeanor. All my love to his surviving family...

He was the best grandpa ever. We were very close. It broke my heart when he passed on. We always had something to do when we came here. I will remember him forever and will always love him.

My grandpa was the best grandpa in the world. We did everything together. He taught me how to clean the swimming pool and add chemicals to it. He was so nice, he would pick me up from school. And, I love him so much.

We will miss his stories and his laughter, but most of all we will miss his friendship. We lost one of the best. Our hearts go out to Trena and all the Orlandi's.

Don was a special friend.I need say no more. I will remember and cherish my relationship with him. WE got together for lunch, but not enough. He helped me with my car and home furnace among other things and I could always count on him for laughs.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. Mr. Orlando was a wonderful person. Orlandi's Body & Fender always took care of my cars. Don always had a nice smile and friendly personality. May God comfort you during this time. I will be praying for the family.

We loved him; he was like an uncle to us.
When we first married we spent a lot of hours with Don and Trena, Lea and Don, eating cookies and milk. Love to all of the family.
