Holly and Don,

I love you so very much. I am so sorry for your loss. It saddens me that Dad left this world to soon. I hurt for you both. Always remember he loved you and was so excited when each of you were born. 

Remember:

“There is a quiet place somewhere beyond tomorrow, where your heart will find peace and the mist of grey will begin to fade away”

I am here for you always.

Love you, 

Mom

I have a lot of wonderful memories of Don over the last 24+ years. He was a friend and confidant but also was a dear family member who felt like another father to me. We used to talk a lot about the latest technology and gadgets. We would frequently share home projects each of us was trying to tackle. We talked about family and life and sports, too. Don, in his dry and quiet way, was one of the funniest people I have ever met! I always enjoyed it when he sent a funny comic or joke my way! Don was also a very talented photographer and had a vast knowledge of electronics, electrical, motors, and gadgetry. If I ever had an electrical wiring question, I knew whom to call! One of the things I cherished most about Don was that he was a loving husband to my mom. For better or worse, he was always there for her, and I know he loved her with all of his heart.  

Don, we all miss you.  

With Love,  Zach
