I met Don through his church which was close to my house. We became the closest of friends for years until I moved to the country. We stayed in touch until he is suddenly disappeared. That was when he went to the home where he lived until his passing. I loved Don a lot. I will always think of him and his kindness and humor. - Posted by: Natalie (Friends) on: Jun 06, 2021
