Don and l grew up in the same neigborhood. He lived at the corner of Hamilton and E. Lafayette, l lived at 813 E. Main. We played baseball in vacant lot next to his house. Others were my brother Glenn, Jimmy Richards, Jimmy Butler, Pat Walkup and his brother David. l'm sure there were others too. Don and l occasionally crossed paths over the years, talked about old times in E. Jackson. To all family members, l send my deepest sympathy.
