We are Don’s neighbors, and Don will be deeply missed by our family. Don was the nicest man and we are glad to have met him, and are saddened to be robbed of future years .

When we moved into our house years ago, he came right over to introduce himself as we were unpacking to have a beer and chat. I remember going right to Ashley and said “we lucked out, we have a cool neighbor.”

He will not be forgotten

Charlie & Ashley
