I have had the pleasure of working with Don for the past 8 years.  I was blessed with his quick wit, awesome comebacks and one liners that he shared with us at Otto.  I could always count on him in any kind situation and he made coming to work every day a new adventure.  I no longer have any one to argue over whose hockey teams is the best (I will concede this year since Don's Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup) or debate whose season will the best, the Cowboys or the Bears.  His presence is very much missed at Otto and he will always be remembered as a wonderful employee and the great friend he was for his Otto family.

Don was a wonderful husband, a great friend, and a loving grandfather. He will be dearly missed by all. He has touched all of our life when step into our family.

Don was my best friend and at times a older brother to me, his wisdom, strength, and humor will be miss by me, I and thankful for having known him, and a better person for it.

Don was such a blessing in our lives!!  We are so thankful to have known him in this life, and praise God, we will get to see him again!!  Don, we know that you are walking those streets of gold with Jesus!!!  Thank You, Jesus!!!

I am so sorry to hear about Don.  It was a pleasure to call him my friend.  We lost touch after the labs but he was never forgotten.  The memories always put a smile on my face.  You are missed my friend.

So sorry to about Don.  He was a friend to all.  I worked with him for years at the Labs.  He made hours go fast!  He will be missed.

Don was wonderful to work with and made every day an adventure...his sense of humor and good nature will surely be missed.  RIP my friend.

I worked with Don for many years at Lucent/Bell Labs.  His humor and good nature really kept the computer center lively!  Don was a good friend and colleague.  He's remembered by many and will be missed.

I love the pictures of Don. They really do tell the story of the person we all grew to know and love. He has touched so many lives of all of his co-workers here at Otto and we were all better for having known him. He blessed us with the gifts of laughter and friendship and I really looked forward to seeing him at work every day. I also look forward to seeing him again when our paths cross in Heaven. May God bless the entire family during your time of sorrow and may you all feel His prescence in your time of need. 

Many blessing to all,
Darryl
