Don was my mentor growing up and a father figure to me . Lois, Scott , Susie and Sheri my heart and prayers are with you. No words can express how much he meant to me. Thank you for all you and your family have done me. Don was simply a great man of God. I owe him so much more than can ever be returned. If there is anything I can do I will. He was always there for me. God bless you and give an extra measure of peace. We love you and your family!

Don was a great friend to all who knew him. We played together on Chandlerville American Legion team in 1967, where we lost the State Championship Game 1-0 on an error. Don was our pitcher, pitched a no-hitter, struck out 18 and we lost.
