He was my grandfather and he along with my grandmother Joan showed my brother Isaac and I so much growing up.

From the fishing trips to Canada all the way to helping out on the farm as kids with the feed store, hay work and cutting the lawn on grandmas John Deere. (Grandpa was all about John Deere)


I got to meet you later in life as an adult in my early twenties a couple of times but I wish I could share my life stories with you these days. You would also have 6 great-grand children these days that would have been pestering you to go shoot guns or take them fishing. (5 boys and 1 girl.)


Love you Pappy,

Isaiah Fitzwater

Fitz and Larry, sorry for your loss. I enjoyed working for your dad putting up hay for so many years before I went into the Air Force.

Uncle Don I love you so much and know i'll see you again someday. I always had so much fun when we come see you chasing the barn cats around, feeding the baby calves, hanging with my cousins who loved to see what they could get the little kids to do! I'm going to miss you so much and won't have reason to come back to PA anymore which is hard to imagine. Again I love you Uncle Don, your niece Vikki Fitzwater Morgan
