Someone as full of life as Don will never be forgotten!
- As a young boy, I lived on my grandparents' farm. I remember sharing stories with Don of exploring the outdoors,,, running along creek beds, fishing, hunting and feeling "CAREFREE FREEDOM."
-I remember many of the club social events, planned by the "Busy Bees," and the amount of work that went into each gathering. By the way, I think that this social committee service is one of the primary pillars that the friendliness and productivity of this club is built upon. Well, behind the scenes were the "spousal worker bees," and when you remember.... Don was there with a willing and playful hand.
-I remember how he would always greet me by coming up behind me and pinching my inner thigh. At first I would be surprised. Then I learned to lean into it and enjoy the personality that was Don.
-Of course, I remember his big ole smile. It would light up a room and, like a magnet, draw people into his circle of genuine fun.
-However, one of my fondest memories of Don was his laugh. It was intoxicating. He could always make me laugh with his playful banter and positive energy.
-I can't think of a higher accolade than, HE ALWAYS MADE ME LAUGH!
-I relate to a line from a well-known Moody Blues song ....."Lovely to see you again my friend, walk along with me to the next bend." Our walk with Don may be at an end for now, but he will travel with me in my memories.
