Don sure was a character. He let me drive a team of his horses one time, with nothing hooked to them. I was a teenager at the time and appreciated him taking time to do that. There are certain people that you remember through life, and he is certainly one of them.

Kindness and love are just some of the words that describe Uncle Don! Beloved by all his family and his community with a servant's heart! When Kelsey was with us --what a dynamic duo! One never said Don always-Don and Kelsey! We are very thankful that he could stay with us for 93 years and thankful for all that he taught us--about loyalty, friendship, and looking after our fellowman. Truly one of the Greatest Generation.
