Gordon, Julia, Ellen, and Lynn. I am so sorry about the passing of your dad. Although I didn't know him, if he is anything like you all, he IS in heaven now! I know you take great comfort in that, and still we miss them when they are gone. I still miss my dad even though he has been gone 4 years. Love and prayers are with you all!

I have been so blessed to have known so many really great and wonderful people in my life and I can say unequivocally this Gentleman was at the top of the list. The World lost a good man with his passing but, from what I know and seen from his family, he has left a great legacy behind. Rest in Peace Don, you've certainly earned it. To Ellen, Elaine, Dennis and all the rest of the family, I am so very sorry for your loss and may God bless and be with you all through this difficult time.
