Lil and family. I just learned today of Don's passing. Kathy and I send all of you our deepest sympathies. Don, besides being a unique North Beach personality, was always pleasant and respectful towards my wife and me through the many years we've known all of you. I hope the new life coming in the family helps to offset the painful sense of loss you must be feeling right now. May Jocko rest in peace.
