I remember Don very well from Bosse class of '57. I am sorry to learn of his death, but pleased to learn of his family and his careers. It was a good life, well-lived. My warmest wishes to all of you, his family. Marilyn May Stanonis, Henderson, Ky.

I have many fond memories of when I lived on Columbia Street next door to Don as a child. We had some great adventures such as camping in my back yard using an old quilt as a tent. Having lost touch, it appears that Don went on to have a full and rewarding life.
