There is not just one memory I have of Uncle Don, but many. He was a kind, loving, man who enjoyed family, fun, laughing and joking. He had a way of making you feel like you saw him everyday even if had been awhile since you had seen him. He always made you feel comfortable, welcome and loved. We enjoyed parties and cookouts in his (and Aunt Nancy´s) home. I will really miss him and loved him and Aunt Nancy very much! Love to all of you family!!
Love, Robbi
