Elizabeth, Jennifer, and Jackie: a smiling face and willing Volunteer at the Military Aviation Museum in Pungo, Don is remembered fondly...we have lost a great friend.  As the Aviation family says:  Don has flown West.  Farewell, shipmate.  We have the Watch.

Elizabeth, I am so sorry to hear about Don. I remember his bright smile and easy conversations with him at our school social events.  You are in my thoughts and prayers. 

Don served in the Navy with our dad, and he was the best man when our dad and mom got married. He was a great friend. Our deepest sympathy to his family and friends. Paula Verhine, Robert Bessey, and Danielle Kelley

 I was so very sorry to hear of Don’s passing ~ sending my condolences to his wife, family & friends. I am grateful to have known Don.  I will always remember him fondly, such a kind person. Don was a long time member and an integral part of our Picture This Photography family. He always went out of his way to make  everyone who walked through the door feel at home with our club.  Don enthusiastically shared his photography wisdom & his beautiful photos, always encouraging us to learn and grow! 
Don especially loved to share stories/pics about his family, their travels/adventures, NATURE, and their pets (if my memory serves, boxers at some point, just beautiful), all things nearest and dearest to his heart, may he Rest In Peace.

I can remember the fun times when you Don, Robert and Myself  would go out to dinner together  or when Don and Robert would play golf. My prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family. If you need anything Elizabeth,  please let me know. Jane

Elizabeth, we are thinking of you and were so sorry to hear of Don's passing.  Our condolences to you, your family and special hugs to Sasha. 

It was my privilege to work with Don both in therapy and to get to know his wonderful work at the Military Aviation Museum. He was an inquisitive soul who enjoyed sharing his vast knowledge and many interests with others. I will think of him when reading about the female aviators at the museum. We will miss this beautiful man who brightened our lives. Condolences to Elizabeth who has been an unfailing support for Don. 

I met Don through a photography club and always enjoyed hearing his side stories of events and travels.  He lived, truly, and was someone who's life I respected and admired.   He's an inspiration.

My late husband, Dave, regularly met with Don for breakfast for many years. He was a good friend and support throughout David’s illness. I’m sorry to learn that he has passed. Fond memories remain. Prayers for his family. 

I was just a young kid over 40 years ago when I started working for CACI. Don was one of our warehouse managers. Don made me feel welcome and was always there with answers when I had questions. So was I ever surprised years later when Don walked into our photo club meeting.  

And later I found out that my partner, Ray Hart, also knew Don as a customer at Ace Hardware. Good friends just keep showing up in your life in many ways.  It’s was a pleasure to have Don as part of ours. My condolences to the family. He will forever be in your heart. ❤️

I’m beyond sorry to see this.  I was involved with Don through The Picture This Photo Club and loved having him in the mix.   We’ve missed seeing him at our gatherings.  He was always involved at our meetings and brought lots of “color” to the group.  I picked up a wise quote from him I use almost daily.  During a discussion about cameras - imagine that- he reminded us all that “it’s not the arrow, it’s the archer.”  A very appropriate truism to be sure that may land on my own grave stone.  I’m sorry for your loss.  We’ve all lost a great friend.  

His photograph buddies will miss Don. We cherished and enjoyed many photo outings with Don as he shared his knowledge with all we encountered, we called him the "Professor". We enjoyed his company tremendously on photo outings.  I had a special appreciation and understanding with him being a retired Navy sailor as he was. A sailors sea salt will only bring a good taste to ones appetite. May he rest in peace.
