Big Don was one of the funniest people I ever met in my life!! I remember years ago, just before I was leaving to go into the Air Force he looked at me with one of his usual funny glances n said, "hey Robb...... don't get nervous, when u go in the service!! We all laughed.... It was a typical classic Big Donny kind of joke. I SURE MISD HIS HUMOR.

A Poem:
It is always sad to see a loved one go, being left with feelings of emptiness and sadness like no one knows.
And though we have to be apart, there will always be a place for you deep within our hearts.
Love from your sister and children. Much love to his wife Linda and their children and grandchildren. Till we meet again in Heaven..
