Don & Lela are two of the most caring people I’ve ever met on this earth. I was just a young 15 yr old girl when I was brought to them and they opened their hearts and their home to me. I was always at their house as they treated me like one of their own; I will always remember such good times as a family: Don taking us all to the Flea Market every weekend and looking for new additions for his collections, going out for family dinners all together at Popo’s. One of the qualities I most admired about Don was that he was always honest and would tell you right out his thoughts on something good or bad he didn’t care if it hurt, he’d rather you hear for it could help you in the right direction, it was worth it and he had this dry humor that would make you laugh out loud if you listened carefully to his quips, this always made for great fun on card playing night when he, Lela, Uncle & Auntie would gather in the kitchen to play cards boy would the witty banter abound back and forth all night. To those of us who were lucky enough to truly know him, Don was truly caring...I will never forget when I was just 17 & pregnant with my Lexie, I was on my own in my apartment scared beyond belief not sure how I was going to make it, Don & Lela were there for me checking on me to make sure I was ok, they would take me grocery shopping and if I needed anything I knew I could turn to them, because of them I felt like I wasn’t truly alone. Don & Lela love my Lexie, they are her true grandparents and I will always be grateful to them for that. 
R.I.P. Don, We will forever miss you

When Don Langford was born, I his sister was 8 years old. So he became MY baby....I was just old enough to take over in his life, I'm sure I spoiled him, when he was around 3, we made a trip to Nebraska to visit our  great grandmother, I'm not sure what took place, but he called G. Grandma Stutheit an old sow...mama got after him and told him to tell her he was sorry...He said " I'm sorry your an old sow", I think he got by with it. I wasn't around him much after we were all grown, all of us were raising our familys. But I loved him and miss him...

Donald was and still is a good man  but now he’s up in Heaven at the right hand side of our Lord and savior. I’ll see you on the other side pop. Love always, Luis.
