So sorry to hear of Don’s death. I worked with him at Ramclif Supply for 21 years.  He was a great guy.  I didn’t know he had passed, would have loved to come to the viewing.  My prayers go out to his whole family.

My sincere sympathy to you in the passing of your Dad and Granddad. I have many ‘good’ memories of him — working with him for 25 years at Ramclif.  My prayers are with your  family at this time ……Dawn Weaver
