Don will also be missed by many nieces and nephews.
Don loved spending time with family and friends. He loved the outdoors, hunting with his dog Allie and fishing. Don was indeed a character with a quick mind, sense of humour, intelligence and wisdom. One thing Don always said was "if I knew I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself"
Don was loved by so many; he will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure of meeting him.
Don was a true legend.
