It was my pleasure to be able to take care of Donald and his wife Dorothy. Lisa and Leslie were always so sweet to me, and I felt like I was a part of the family. It's been so long since we lost him, and I think about them often. Sending my love and heartfelt condolences to you both at this time. Donald and Dorthy may be gone but they are never forgotten.

I cannot believe that it has been so long since our beloved Donald had passed. I was Donald's caregiver and it wasn't a day that would go by when I was taking care of him that he did not make me laugh. I have truly missed him and Dorthy but was truly fortunate that I had the opportunity to care for him while he was sick. He is truly missed. I will never forget him or his beautiful wife and his lovely daughters Leslie and Lisa they were just like family to me. Leslie and Lisa thank you for allowing me to care for your parents it was truly an honor.

Sincerely Shonda

Dot, Lisa, Leslie, and Jim, my thoughts and prayers are with you in this challenging time. I hope that your grief is tempered by the solace that Don found in his renewed faith in Christ, as his time to depart this life for another approached. I am sure he is at peace now, and awaiting his reunion with his loved ones.

Dons passion for his work as a sales rep was very inspiring. He is the most dedicated and sincere person I have ever work with in sales.
He always told me it was the adrenal of the deal that kept him going. (way cool!) His caring personality and witting humor will be in our thoughts forever. Thank you Don for being so awesome because Shaker Numeric will always be grateful for all you did for us.God bless you and you family.

I had the great pleasure of meeting Don, and his family in March. Immediately Don and I had a great connection. Although I only knew him for a short time; it actually feels like I've known him for a life time. The times we spent together I will never forget, and I will always treasure. He will be greatly missed, and I want to say thank you Don for all of the great laughs we shared, and the pleasant memories I will always hold near and dear in my heart for you.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Don was my "adopted Father" who I met in 1972 at Telco. He went out of his way to help me get started at Telco, which led to a strong and long-lasting friendship. I always enjoyed being around Don, with his kidding and light-
hearted attitude. He will be sorely missed!

Don was a great friend and mentor that I first met 25 years ago. He was firstly a very positive person who helped me in so many ways over the years. He just took life and people for what they were and had many great sayings about life. I was proud to know Don and consider him one of my greatest friends. Don will be greatly missed by all of the people that knew him.
