I remember Don as a very nice and fun friend. I think he lived on Mulvey or Warsaw. I lived on Fleet. I wonder if we ever recognized how much fun those years were. - Posted by: Grant Inglis (LaVerendry School) on: May 02, 2025

Libby and I have been friends of Don and Sylvia’s for more than 50 years. Although we have lived in different cities at many times our friendship has never weakened. We wish we could be with the whole family and friends at the gathering this weekend. We have lost a great guy. But he and Sylvia have raised a great family. I sincerely hope that this message is seen by Sylvia, John, Bob and Jeff. Sincerely, Don McKibbin - Posted by: Don and Libby McKibbin (Friends) on: Apr 07, 2025
