We square danced and went on several trips with Donald and Aline. They were our great friends and our 6 children had so much fun spending time with Darrin. We will cherish their friendship always.

Roomed with Donald when he first started working for Texaco in Houma in 1961. My wife and his first wife Aline were friends.

"Mr. Don" is what I called my second dad. When he and my mom divorced Mr. Don and I always stayed in touch. When he and Mrs,Janet moved back to LA, I was very excited because I would be able to not only continue our talks on the phone, but I would actually get to see him and to meet Mrs, Janet, whom I found to be a very kind person. My heart is breaking but I know that my "Mr. Don" is where he has no more pains and is talking with God, cause he was a very religious person. My prayers go out to Mrs. Janet and his son, Darrin and his other daughter, Rebecca.

Sorry to hear about Don's passing. The last time I saw Don was when we were in Denver. I will keep the family in my prayers.

I'm so sorry to hear about Donald. I sure wish I would have been able to see y'all before this sad news reached me. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers. He was one of my favorite cousins.
Will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers. Sorry I never got to meet you Janet, but I guess it was not meant to be so.
