Linda, I hope you are surrounded by love. Don was always a great guy.

Don has been a dear family friend for nearly 50 years. We first met when our children were in preschool together. Terry was fortunate to have been Don’s partner with the Chester Ambulance Service. for a year. We have enjoyed traveling together with him and Linda, and spending many family get togethers over the years. We will miss him greatly and feel privileged to have known Don as such a kind and caring friend.  We send our love and sympathy to Linda and their family.
With love,
Sue and Terry Kay


I'm sorry to hear of Don's passing. 
I worked with Don for a number of years on the Chesterland Fire Department and he was always willing to help others.
My condolences to Linda and his children. 
Don was a hard working guy who always wanted to make sure whatever he did he did it 100 percent.   

Don was a kind and wonderful man.  My condolences and prayers go out to the Kristo Family.  I’m sure he will be missed.  🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️


I extend my sincere sympathy to the family of Donald R. Kristo.  I knew him during his tenure at the Plain Dealer where I was also employed. 

The following are my memories of Donald: 

Donald R. Kristo was a "Gentile Giant" of a man who, when he was present, spoke softly with pleasant words that echoed profound sense.  Because of his pre-mature white hair at an early age, many members of the Chesterland Fire Department referred to him as the "Silver Fox".  He accomplished much in his life and he will be remembered for his special characteristics.

Very sorry to hear of Don's passing, my deepest sympathies & condolences to his wife & family. Don knew my parents (Margie & Elmer) and my sister (Heather Banhidy) fom the NEOBCA Buick club, I also knew him from the club even though I hadn't been active for many years until recently. 

I used to work with Don when he and Linda had Signsations in Orwell. It was always fun to listen to his stories while working. He would tell me about everything from different signs he had done to cute family stories and everything in between. He had a wonderful sweet soul and he will be greatly missed by all of us. We extend our sympathy to Linda and her children and grandchildren during this time.
