To the Koons family, we're so sorry to hear of the loss of a such great man. Our thoughts, prayers and hearts go out to you all. There are many wonderful memories that I have to remember Don. He had such a great spirit that would lighten my day when I saw him. I always looked forward to seeing him on the weekends. I would go out of my way to find his demo. I loved to run up behind him and tap him on the opposite shoulder as the side I was standing. After he got my little joke he would say "hey gal". He used to call me "Rosie babe", I thought that was cute, and I always tried to save him some produce because I knew how much he loved those grapefruits. We all miss him, but he hasn't left us at all, he'll always be in our hearts and even the littlest things like a smoothie will remind me of my good friend Don.

For My Babydoll
When I was just a little girl
Your house was my favorite place
You and June waving on the porch
Brought a smile to my face.
We played in your yard
And in your basement too
Aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents
And lots of delicious food!
It was sad when we left
When you and June waved goodbye
You were always magic to me
When we drove away I’d cry.
My uncle, my pal, my joy
You called me “Babydoll”
You made me feel so special
Ever since I was small.
I watched you grow older
But to me you never changed
The same old Uncle Don
I didn’t see that you’d aged.
And now you’re gone
And my heart does grieve
But to your frail body
It comes as a relief.
You rest now, Uncle Don
And when I come to call
You’ll greet me with a great big hug
And call me “Babydoll.”
From Sonya for her Uncle Don
