I met Don once at Bruce's memorial service. We kept in contact via texting for several years. He and Bruce were friends during law school. Wishing his family comfort as he helped me so much. He was a kind friend.

Know our angel cousin Don is enjoying his new address surrounded by so many loved ones just as I am confident that his generous, thoughtful caring life lives on in the hearts and treasured memories of the countless lives he touched.l still treasure the stories he wrote and sent with homemade pumpkin bread; memories of him piloting his grandma in her 80s for her first plane ride; his acting as Mr Roberts in a play. He was so multi talented. Thanks for the many memories and good times til we meet again!!! Double love from your twin cousins Judy and Joyce

I met Don when in law school and got to know and respect him through our four years of student government and politics (he as the Student Bar Association and I was on its Board).

We stayed in touch for the rest of his life, and I always looked forward to our lunch conversations.
They were always interesting because he was so genuine, articulate, thoughtful and insightful.

Don was a refreshingly unique individual and thinker, whose knowledge, experience, and perspectives were both wide and deep.

His kindness, compassion and concern for others touched and left a mark on many lives

Don, pictured here as most of us on the Minnesota MS Motorcycle Escort Team will remember him. First to show up on a trike and last to lose his cool. He was a great friend to all of us and we'll probably be telling Don stories for quite some time. I had the honor of leading the team with him and sharing the title of Special Event Volunteer All-Stars in 2009. Many thanks to Don's family for sharing him with us.

You were a man of ideals and integrity and a valued friend. Rest now my Viet Nam, aviation, and psychology friend and associate.

So many stories, so many MS-150 rides, always made better with Don's guidance, smile and gentle ways. My friend, the world is a better place because you were in it.

I am so grateful to have been a friend of Don's for the past 5 years. He was amazingly thoughtful, and added his own special sense of humor to every situation. As many others have already stated, I am a better person for having known him. I was able to share numerous Sunday coffees and conversations with him, over the years, after services at St. Christopher's. I got to meet his wonderful cat Frances, and check out his many hummingbird feeders. He had so many stories to share and always spoke about of each of his children with pride. Don had a following of fans at church, many of whom loved him and helped him get to and from his church home right up until the end. I will miss our deeply philosophical conversations but he will forever be a part of me and of those he knew. My sincere condolences.

Don was an angel on earth and countless people were better for his loving kindness. I was one of those people for nearly 50 years.

We only met your dad once. I remember him as fiercely interesting and incredibly witty. We are so sorry for your loss and thank him, through you, for his service to his Country.

Although your Dad and I never physically met, we knew each other very well. Through endless texting and speaking on the phone, we became very attached to each other.
He was such a caring and loving man with such a great and sometimes corny personality. It´s hard to believe but we loved each other dearly and he will always be in my heart.
