Don was a caring and helpful neighbor, He and my late husband Don spent hours sitting on his pier, fishing, and talking. They were involved with CBF oyster farming and Queenstown Lions club, working together on many chicken BBQ's.
He will be missed by many.

"Speak" was what my brother called him when he was little, was a great friend to my Dad and beloved by my whole family. I remember dinner at his house and great stories! He was a co-worker of Dad's who turned into life long friend. Peace for you. Kelly McGuire
