  1. Dannie, Donnie, Kelly , Kristie and Chip, I am so sorry to hear of Don's passing. he was such a kind man. I have very fond memories of Pete and Don sitting out on your front porch on College Street solving the world's problems! Because Don's father had worked at the Geneva Metal Wheel with my father, we were able to share many stories about the good old days. Please,know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

  2. I am trying sorry for your families loss. I remember your father as a kind man and always had a big smile.

  3. I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult times for a family to go through. I hope you find comfort in the resurrection promise. At Acts 24:15 we are promised to see our loved ones again. Won't it be wonderful to see that time come true?
