It is an honor to have known Don. He will definitely be missed for his fish stories, card playing, and constant razzing. My thoughts and prayers go out for Glenda and the fact.

Memories of going fishing and countless other must be there with those of you who knew him best. May this scripture come to mind (Acts 25:14) also when you remember him.
