Don will be lovingly remembered by his children, Wendy (Mike) Bush, Michelle Smith (Brad Drollinger), Jeffrey Tryon; stepchildren, Greg DeGraff, David (Toni) DeGraff, and Michelle Sydloski; 11 grandchildren; 7 great-grandchildren; siblings, Joe Tryon, Dawn McCall; and several nieces, nephews, and friends.
