Don Rest in Peace. In my early career I began my work at Dravo and Cliff Shannon's service unit where Don was always a smiling happy face which greeted you each morning.
Don never had an unkind word about anyone and was happy running his printing press. The World needs more people like him.
Don may you be blessed with the rest you deserve in the beautiful golden light of GOD's Heaven. Amen.

Don was a very special man even with the disabilities he had to endure. He is finally at peace and free of the pain and misery he has had all these years. God bless you Don! You now walk with the angels.
