Don was a loving, caring, and very generous husband, father, father in law, Poppa, uncle, brother and all around good guy. As our neighbor he was the best; always willing to help, lend tools, jump your car...whatever you needed. He was a humble veteran of Vietnam and loved children. He will be greatly missed by us all. I will forever remember this kind and loving soul.
