My precious uncle, I miss you so much already. Thank you for all the pep talks, words of wisdom and love you have shown me throughout the years. I love you so much and miss you terribly

Bryon, Bob and Deb, we’re very sorry for your loss. I met Don 65 years ago at a creek near Morrow, where our families lived on farms. We started school together with 8 of us in the first grade at Morrow School and we graduated from Lincoln in 1971 with about fifty of us. We stayed friends after that and even though he moved away for many years he finally moved back to this area and we visited often. Don was very smart, always had a great sense of humor and had a wonderful personality. RIP Don, you’ve earned it. Jeff and Cheryl

Don was a great neighbor. He always was in the know of what was going on with all the neighbors and knew how to always be of assistance. Very appreciative of his kindness extended to my mother who also was his neighbor for a the time she lived next to him. God bless him and many thoughts and prayers for the family in the days and months ahead.
