I so shocked and saddened to hear of Don's passing. I met Don in NCOCS in Ft Bliss. He had the bunk next to me. We spent a lot of time together studying, shining boots, preping uniforms for the next day and just talking. I only got to see him once after the army. I was hichhiking from Columbia MO back to California. I always wanted to get back to see him again, and recently had been searching the net for him. He was an army buddy and more importantly a friend.
This photo is from training in Ft Bliss. He is the 19 year old down in the lower right corner.

I met Don in the Army. We were in training together at Fort Bliss and reconnected months later in Vietnam. After Vietnam we only saw one another a couple of times, but we remained in touch via phone, cassette voice tapes, letters; and later the internet.
I have only great memories of our time together. He had a good heart and great laugh.

Just learned of his passing. He was a good friend to my parents. According to my baby book I was named after him. May he rest in peace.

I was so shocked to hear that Don died. I remember him as such a fun-loving guy and the consummate professional. We had some great dinner parties at him home. I will miss his laugh and his incredible wit.

Don and I lived in the same neighborhood for several years. He loved his yard and we exchanged plantings several times. Several of his friends "decorated" his yard one year and I got a phone call stating that he knew when my BD was and he wouldn't forget. He had a great laugh and I always enjoyed seeing him. Great guy.

I only knew you for a few years, but I will miss talking to you, seeing you, your wheezing laugh, and your very matter of fact advice when I was all wound up over things. May you rest in peace.

Don Dragosh was my manager for several years at Sprint. He had the best laugh and a great sense of humor and I wish I had known about his illness before he passed away. My heartfelt sympathy to his family.

Don was my manager for a while at Sprint and we always had a good laugh or two every day together. He would always laugh when I get excited over his treats he'd bring for us... of his sister's cookies... Don will be missed

I am grateful for the life of Mr. Dragosh. Thanks to his service and to the service of others in our armed forces, my family and I have been able to lead our lives in freedom and peace.
Welcome home, Don.

I worked with Don in the middle '80's when Sprint was just being born. He made a quite an impression on a kid not far out of college. He was a consumate professional who also knew how to relax and enjoy himself. Don had a great laugh. He'll be sorely missed.

Don was a classmate of mine Bishop Ward Class Of 64. Later on we worked together at The Railway Express Agency. And if memory serves me we also attended Donnelly College together. Don was easy going and quick to smile. A true gentleman.

My husband was a real good friend of Don's. My husband was Raymond Maskil. He passed away in 2007. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
