My Uncle Don was indeed the warmest and most kind person I ever knew. I have wonderful memories of visiting him and my Aunt Sheila in New Jersey and Cape Cod. In fact, he and Sheila were the first to greet me and my new fiancée on a visit to Falmouth to see them before leaving on a naval deployment (we always enjoyed talking about our times in the service). It seemed fitting that they would be the first to celebrate the occasion with me and my future wife. Just a special man (an Officer and a Gentleman) and I am grateful for the Uncle and role model he was to me throughout his life. With deepest sympathies and thoughts to the entire Hailer family. Love, Tim and the Fahey Family.

Don and Sheila were my neighbors in Glen Rock. We had a beautiful friendship. We shared so many laughs on their side porch. We especially loved Don´s Navy stories. One night we laughed so loudly that a neighbor called the police. My father was at my house, and he said, "No wonder!"
