Aunt Rachel, Jonathon, Brittany, and Shenna,

Don was a wonderful person who was always in good spirits and made us feel so welcomed in your home. I will miss him very much and I will never forget the time we spent with you all in the past couple years we have lived here. I am so happy that we moved here and were able to spend that time with Don.

Stay strong and don't forget how much you are thought of and loved.

Rachel and children, I was very saddened to hear of Don's passing. I grew up with Don and have many fond memories of all the good times we all had on West Mountain Drive in our younger years. He was a good guy and a very good friend. The kind of friend that always stuck by you through thick and thin. A true friend. May God bless and keep Don. And may God bless you, and give you, and the children strength through these trying times. You are in my heart and prayers.

Rachel I'm so sorry to hear about Don, if there is anything I can do for you or the kids just let me know. He was a good person to everyone. He was also a good husband, father, and friend. I always remember riding the rides with him at the fair. I would pass him all the time on 41 he would always wave at me.
