My heart felt condolences to Marie and family. Don was a Pine Grover, and I liked him. He was so proud of one of his grandson's (I believe) that had written something (a number of years ago) and wanted everyone to read it. I did, and it was very good.



Rest in peace Don.

My sincerest condolences go to Don's family. I was lucky enough to give Don his last haircut a few weeks ago and will treasure that memory. Don and Maria have been like a second family to me. Growing up with Donna brings back memories of spending time at her home as well as Pine Grove. I feel very lucky to have been part of the family. You will be missed Don.
