Was thinking about this man today, 8 years after his passing.
I was just an acquaintance thru the telephone company and I hired Don every time I was assigned a new location. I´m just an old telephone field manager.
I knew dear Justin and ached with Don and Marg at that loss.
Now Don is with that precious son in heaven.
Both those men were loved and appreciated.
Don showed me great kindnesses after I retired which has stayed in my heart.
Peace to all the family.

He was a man of many words!!! He loved live and he lived his life everyday! He was my amazing father in law for 13 years.... Then our lives changed but I loved him and he always told me I was his pick! Margaret is an angel on this earth and will have a special place in heaven one day! I love you more than any words can possibly say!
