Lori, I never met you but Don and I worked together in so many ways. He was my vendor, my boss, my customer, and my friend. I didn't hear of his passing until considerable time had passed and I just received an email reminding of this opportunity to share a memory. Don and I shared many travel times together as well as heart to heart lunches where we shared our faith, our opinions, and our differences. Theologically, we did not completely see eye to eye but at a heart level we did. One day while meeting at QL, Don asked me if I had ever read the Bible front to back. I told him that I really wasn't much a reader. He paused, smiled and laid this pearl on me. "So, what your telling me is, God gave you one book to read and you haven't done it?". That single statement pushed me to read the bible multiple times so far and share that story with others to "gently push" them to doing the same. I think of him often and what more of a legacy can any man ask for.

Dear Lori, Kirsten, and Don Jr. I am so saddened by your/our loss. I loved to hear Don's talks and I enjoyed going out in service with you Lori, Kirsten and Don Jr. when he was younger before he married. I know Jehovah will comfort you and your family, and we all look forward to seeing Brother Peach as we celebrate the resurrection of our loved ones. My prayers are with you all.

Dear Lori and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Don. He touched so many lives in such an encouraging way, including in my own family. May Jehovah wrap his strong arms of comfort around you and keep your hearts calm and peaceful as only he can (Ps. 34:18) - until he awakens your Dear One. Don will be so happy to see you, embrace you all, and hear the exciting things Jehovah brought to fruition while he was napping! Please may you feel Jehovah’s love and blessings and all our warm sympathies until that wonderful moment!

With sadness and a heavy heart, I will miss Don. My relationship with Don was from Briess Malt and Ingredient Company, but more importantly on a personal level.
Like so many would say, Don was a "one of a kind guy". If you met Don, "you couldn't not like him". As a friend, I looked forward to our long chats, words of wisdom, and lunches at Tavern on Clark.
Don was someone who inspired, motivated and encouraged excellence through God, Family and Community.
Don, your smile and good nature will be inbedded in my memories forever. May you rest in peace.
P.S. put in a good word for me up there and save me a good space.
Bob

We are very sorry to hear about Don's passing. You are in our hearts and prayers during this difficult time. Don was a treasure and wonderful person to know! His energy and geniuneness will be sorely missed until we meet him again in Paradise. John 5:28, 29.

We all shared the joy of being part of the Bethel Family. We long for the day when our loved ones will enjoy life forever. Jehovah calls death an enemy that robs us. Please be assured of our sincere sympathy. Warm love. Lou & Frosene Travis.

Dear Peach Family, Don has touched so many lives in a positive way. When in need of a quadruple bypass it was your dear one Jehovah used by the HLC to provide life saving surgery. We are so grateful! Jehovah knows the ones who belong to him and promises, never to leave them. May you feel his comforting love.

Dear Lori and Family. Our hearts are broken as we heard of your loss. I think of 1 Cor. 4:2 as I remember Don - a full life of dedication to Jehovah and found faithful to the end. Please be assured of our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Peach family,
While we did not know your husband, reading the messages of others below really warms our heart.
He seemed like a great guy! Looked happy, has a quite a fun group of friends, and has a great relationship with His God!
May the God of all comfort, Jehovah, give you all the strength you need to cope with the loss of such a neat guy! There is no doubt that, during the party you will have for his celebration, you will pick right back up where you left off. What a reunion!
While we do not know you, we love you. And, your spiritual family is here to help... However we can.
Much love,
Gene n Carmen McKelvey.

Hard to process this tragedy. So many good times with Don in the Pressroom and also in the chairman's office at the conventions. Our hearts ache for Lori, everyone in Don's family, and all his many friends who grieve his loss. - Jim & Joanie Meske

Dear Lori and family,
I served with Don at the Farm in the mid 1970s and have many good memories of him—always had a smile and pleasant demeanor as one of Jehovah’s people! And his reputation (and that of your entire family) in the decades right up till now is every bit as commendable…My wife and I are absolutely confident that Jehovah will fully take care of you. (Psalm 34:18)

My deepest condolences to the Peach family. Don was a great human - kind, funny and very caring. I had the privilege of working with him at QLC and he was an extraordinary mentor and colleague. I hope you find comfort in your many fond memories.

Lori, we are so saddened. You and Don touched many lives between Walkill and where you presently reside. I remember when you and Don met. It was the buzz of Marengo. Time has gone on and we keep praying for the Kingdom to come.
