Martha and family,
What a huge loss. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you. I have missed Don's smiling face and jokes around the office. He always had such a positive attitude and was one of the hardest workers I have ever known. I am sure dad had work lined up for him when they met. He will be fishing and thinking up some great stories and jokes for when we all see him again.
