Don would fly half way round the world, sort out one of his cars, teach us something about cardiac surgery or blood pumps, and leave us better than we'd have been without him. Always with enormous energy, always with a smile. He will be missed.

8 years ago I met the most brilliant Heart surgeon who with his brilliance and amazing skill gave me a second chance at life. So saddened to hear of the passing Professor Esmore. May his wonderful legacy live on. RIP

Donaldi. Thanks for an amazing 14 years of memories to look back on. You always told me our son James was the most important thing in your life and you will always live on through him. Love always Jennifer x

I have some funny early memories from sailing days at Indented Heads. A wonderful man. I know his pain as I too have myeloma. Rest easy. You join an esteem group upstairs. God bless.
