June, Larry, Stu and Ross,
So sorry to hear of Donald's passing.
I remember from ages ago when Donald would take us (at least Larry and I and sometimes Stu) somewhere on Saturday mornings (maybe to the Playhouse in Oakland ?). I can't remember where we went, only that we usually returned to your house afterwards and proceeded to drive your mom crazy :-)
Our thoughts are with you all at this time.
Love --
