To the Doll family, I didnt get to know your father as well as I have gotten to know the rest of the family. That being said, I can honestly say he was a truly gifted man. Being surrounded by such caring, loving people. No dought in my mind his greatest accomplishment was his family.
The last impression Don left on me was my wrinkled hand, glad I got it back in one piece, nice grip Don. R.I.P.

My condolences to the Doll Family: I am Douglas D Box. My father was Cloyce Box who was a Lions teammate of Don's. My oldest brother, Don D Box, was named after Don Doll. My 3 brothers and I (see photo) all carry the middle initial 'D' in honor of this great man, for whom we all have tremendous admiration and respect. Doug Box

I still remember the name, Don Doll, whose jersey and trophies were in a case at our high school, Grant Union High School, Del Paso Hts, Calif (near Sacramento0. He was a big hero to entering freshmen who never even met him.

Coach Doll was more to me than a football coach @ the U. of Notre Dame. He taught me how to respect the game of football and the true meaning of committment, discipline, dedidcation and knowledge that I carried over into my life. You could confide in him and know it would stay just between the 2 of us. My last memory of Coach was after ND's year-ending game @ Duke when we both knelt and cried not only because we lost the game, but because our player-coach relationship had come to an end. With respect & admiration,

Many of us don't even remember who this man is because we're too young. But he meant a lot to someone. Our thoughts surely go out to the family.
Losing someone in death is incredibly hard to deal with. No matter how many times it happens, dealing with death is never an easy thing.

Tom and Debbie Swiss send their prayers and love to the Doll family. Don was a wonderful addition to our family when he was with us waiting for his family to join him when he started with the BALTIMORE COLTS. Always a smile and his family was first. I remember the house you lived in in Cockeysville and the great children. Plus the great gift you sent us when we moved to our first and only house we still use it and think of you when we do. Please know that you will be with us in our prayers. Tom and Debbie Swiss Baltimore
