IT WAS A PRIVILEGE TO KNOW DON AND HIS FAMILY. DON AND I SHARED AN APPRECIATION OF FLOWERS, MUSIC AND THE OUTDOORS. HIS LAUGHTER AND LOVE OF LIFE WAS CONTAGIOUS. MY LIFE IS RICHER BECAUSE OF DON.

I was one of Don's care providers. Don was a special person. I was in Don's home for almost 5 years. He will be greatly missed.

With deepest sympathy to Don's family. I was Don's physical therapist after his accident. The severity of his injury was overcome for 30 years by his determination and perseverence. He is now free of pain and in his spiritual body once again walking with his maker. May your memories sustain you. May God bless you all. Arlee Kawakami

I worked with Don at the State Insurance Fund & my daughter, Ashlee Trebilcock, took care of him last year for awhile while working in the home health care industry. We will both miss him alot, but he is in a better place now. Take care Don & we will see you in heaven.
