So sorry to hear about Don. I can remember him being very kind and spending time at there house as a kid.

Uncle Don used to let me sit on a flipped bucket next to his seat on the combine while he worked. He was patient with any questions I asked about farming. He was a gentle giant of a guy with the most beautiful voice. When we were little, he´d put on a baseball cap, flip the brim up and pretend to be an undereducated farm hand with a thick German accent and crack us up with his stories. I have very happy memories of a week or two spent on an Oklahoma farm every summer.
RIP to my favorite uncle.

So sorry, I was shocked to hear about Don! We were hoping to see him again soon. God bless you and your family. When Jesus comes, you will have him again!!

Don was a special kind of man who loved God and he loved people. As a young man I was blessed to work for Don in the fields. I don't remember that he ever got angry or upset.
Sharon always brought us a delicious homemade meal. Even in harvest we never worked late. We stopped extra early on Friday afternoons. I was often asked to join the family for dinner and conversation before going home. It was one of the best summers of my life. I hope to see him again in heaven very soon.

So sorry for your loss. Always enjoyed his singing and playing for him. One of my favorites was Tennessee Ernie Fords song "Come On Down Lord Jesus and Take Us Away". LaDon were special friend from high school days. Will be greatly missed. You will always hold him in your heart.

Meeting him at the Okeene SDA Church the first Saturday that they had their first service in the new church. It was my second time to be inside an SDA Church. He welcomed me and he sang that day. Thought I needed his autograph and find out where I could buy his music! Never disappointed with his singing. Loved him dearly!
