Tracy , and family so sad to learn of your father's passing. Donald was an excellent Mason. My late father Joesph J. Janowski and I worked a few jobs with Donald. Quite a learning experience. When St. Casimir Catholic Church in the Town Of Hull remodeled the basement and kitchen area in 1991, and installed the central heating and air conditioners in 2001, Donald did and donated most of the concrete work a legacy that we enjoy today. It was always a good b.s. session at the former Starlight Ballroom when Donald would stop in for his Dads Root Beer. May God rest Donalds soul. I will remember Donald in my prayers.
