We send our deepest sympathies for Don’s passing.  I always think of him by his childhood name, “Donnie”.  Even though our ways parted many years ago, I do think of my cousins “Donnie and Davey” from time to time and pray that the families of each one are doing well.  God bless you all as you mourn his loss.  Lois (Newswanger) Smith and husband, Dale
