Donald James Reed

I worked with Don for several years, volunteering with Michigan Nature Association. Knowledgeable, friendly, hard-working - he was a pleasure to work with and to know. We knew it would be a good day when Don was there with his chainsaw.
My sympathies to the family.

Too many great memories. We went on a rowboat adventure from Grand Ledge to Portland. Don picked me up in his new Jeep to go off roading. Of course the trip ended with a tow truck. Softball team and touch football games with Bob Sheep and the gang were a riot. I will mostly remember survey crew misadventures with some truly memorable people. Rest in Peace, Don, you were a truly wonderful person.

Carolyn,

The first wedding I can ever remember going to was your marriage to Don. It was beautiful. I have great memories of the years attending the DNR events with my Dad and Mom, Gene and Betty Cherry. The parties/hayrides at our house.... You and Don, the Bissell´s, Ms. Bandy, the McCann´s, and so many others. I hope your memories carry you through. I let my brother know as well. He and I both send our condolences to you and your family.

So sorry to hear about Don's passing. I will keep you both in my prayers,
