I am going to borrow a quote:
All Gave Some, Some Gave All
Don Gave All to so many for so long
He will be greatly missed
Our deepest sympathies go out to his family.

Don was a guy who genuinely cared for people; students, co-workers, friends, and especially his family (always talked about them). Don also had the ability to bring smiles to your face, even in the toughest of situations. Don impacted many people in Grinnell and its school system, and he will be greatly missed. Tara and I are praying for the Lender family through this difficult time.

My late husband Charlie collaborated on a lot of projects with Don during his time at Grinnell. May the stories that are sure to come forth in the coming days give you a measure of comfort.
