What I remember about Donald from long ago is that he dated my sister Martha (who passed away in 2004) when they were teenagers. She kept his letters from when he was in the service and he wrote "remember the time we stopped the car and danced to the music on the side of the road". He was full of enthusiasm and fun. May God bless him.

To the Jaros Family and all that loved Donald, Please know how much we are thinking of you at this time. Thank you Donald for letting us know you. You were an amazing Man. You showed my children and myself that there are caring, non judgemental sincere people still in this world. You will be greatly missed but never forgotten. When we start to get sad that you are no longer on this earth we will remember your warm smile and smile towards the Heavens. We will never forget you.
Much Love, Tina, Chris, Christie & Brandon.
