Eddie & Amy & Family. I am so sorry for your loss, Don was a great man! My memory of him is he would walk me through your warehouse when I was managing your inventory & through our chats, you could tell he was very proud of you. He was also a Salesman's dream because he would tell me to write up more product than I was that Mulligan Htg will go through it, Lol... We would walk around & he always had a joke or two & you could tell he loved life. You could also tell he was proud of you as a Father, Grand Father & Father n law. My thoughts are ALWAYS with you Eddie, you're a great son!!!
