I'm the service manager at Action Heating and Cooling, in Crossville Tn. I met Don several years ago. Every time he pulled in to the shop, I always gave him a hard time about his Pats license plate. I wondered all fall and winter why we hadn't seen him, and it breaks my heart to learn of his passing. Great guy to talk football with. My condolences to the entire family.

Steve, I worked with Don at the McKesson Chemical company prior to his retirement. I actually met your Mom prior to meeting your father. She was in Mass Rehab in 1976. She shared a room with my Mother. When I would cry while visiting your Mom always said. Sweetie don't cry your Mom knows your here. When I began working at the Medford office your Dad invited us to his house for a BBQ. Your Mom greeted me with Please come in Sweetie. I then realized that she was the room mate with my MOM.. Small world but I later retired and came to Fairfield Glade in 2010. I worked part time as the local grocery store and happen to notice an order for a Zeboski family. I called and Micky answered I asked if she was married to Don she said yes would you like to speak to him. OMG yes I would love to. He was so gracious to me and we chatted for quite some time. He later invited me to a Dinner at his home with Theresa & Scott. We had a wonderful time talking about the old days. Your father was the best chemical sales representative of McKesson Chemical. I stayed on thru many acquisition until I retired 2004. It was a pleasure to get to know your family thru the years. He was good friends with many customers and he will be missed by many. So sorry for your families loss. I cherish the fun memories of our times together.
