To Brenda, Janessa, Jocelynn, and the rest of Don's family, My sincere condolences to you for the loss of Don. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. His passing has brought on a period of reflection about time spent with him. Whether it was growing up down the road from him or sharing rides home from a summer day of work at Dillberry, he had a big impact on me. His laugh, seeing and hearing about his passions (hunting! the land, his family), his kind and patient nature; they are all things that will always stand out in my mind. He had an upbeat approach to almost everything that was infectious. It was rare to experience Don being frustrated but then again, he was working with young 'uns and there was always potential for stupidity, somewhere, and it seems his patience for that was limited! :) All in all, I see that he was a man who affected many lives, in wonderful ways. He will be remembered and missed by all, including me.
