The 1st thing you know on meeting and being with DON is he represents what a gentleman is (or should be).
I've known DON for over 20 years,first as a client,then as vendors at major jewelry trade shows and lastly as a part of the LESTAGE MGF. TEAM (for a short time).
He can be described as a FRIENDLY,HONORABLE,ARTICULATE MAN who anyone would be most happy to have as a friend.
You can always count on DON for a SMILE
and GOOD CONVERSATION.
I've been lucky to have DON as a friend and I will always remember him positively.

To Garner, Dick and the rest of the LeStage family:
So sorry to hear of Don's passing. The obituary presents a wonderful picture and tribute. It also brings back many memories of growing up in North Attleboro including the annual New Year's morning "Open House" at your house on High Street. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families and with Don's wife and family. Thank you also for your very kind thoughts and comments on my Mom's recent passing.

Dearest LeStage Family...so many fond memories and stories spanning several generations. It was with great sadness that I learned of Donny's passing. With tears and a chuckle or two, I read the wonderful tribute to Don in the obituaries. Obviously a family effort. My thoughts, love and prayers are with you.

To Garner and Dick and families,
My condolances to all. I remember growing up with Don ( Garner and Dick ) going to scouts and playing in the back yard on High Street. It has been a while since being there but memories will persist forever. I wish you all the best in the future and maybe our paths will cross soon.

Dear Linda, Dick, Garner, Matt & Family-
We were deeply saddened when we read about Don's passing. We are so very sorry for your loss. He was a great man in many aspects. I enjoyed working for LeStage for the 5 years I was employed there. It always felt like a family. Upon my leaving the company, Don called me into to office and we chatted like old friends. He will be deeply missed by many. I will have fond memories of the many laughs we shared also.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Sincerely,
Michele & Craig Cooley
