With you in our thoughts  - Ivan and Vivian

Dear Barb - I just saw this notice and send my love and prayers for your comfort and support. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband and hope you are surrounded by family and friends.  With love, Sandy

Our Thoughts and Prayers are with you & your Family at this difficult time, Barb.


My deepest sympathy to Barbara and Terry Lee.   Aunt Doris and Uncle Bernard  and my family only lived one block apart as we grew up in Henrico.  Donald was 8 years older than me, and 3 years older than my sister, Linda, but he would frequently walk down to our house and sit on our front porch and talk with us.  I remember thinking that he was a pretty "cool" cousin for spending time with us!  As he grew older and started skiing, he would tell us about his travels and skiing adventures, which I just thought were awesome!  I also remember the day he came to tell us that Terry Lee had been born, and we shared in his joy and were so happy for him.  Then, as happens, Donald moved away, and then I married and moved to New Kent  -- and I guess we lost contact with one another, but I've never forgotten him.    Just seeing his picture in the paper brought back so many memories, and I so enjoyed watching his video and seeing all of the things that he loved and enjoyed.  I lost James, my husband of 45 years, a little over a year ago, so I know that you will both have challenging times in the days ahead, but just always remember all of the wonderful years that you shared .  May God Bless You.

Don was always welcoming, kind and fun to be around. He will be missed. Our condolences from Carl, Charmaine and the whole McKnight, Gray and Bramble Families.  

Dear Barb and family,  I know you will dearly miss Don in the days ahead.  You shared many wonderful memories, family,  and friends together .  May the God of all comfort draw near and you feel peace in your soul.  Thinking of you with love, June Pierson

Dear Barb,
We are so very to hear of the passing of your beloved husband, Don

It's been said "the only way to take sorrow out of death is to take love out of life."  ...and on this special Easter Sunday, it is a comforting reminder that although we might experience a  tearful separation from our loved ones for a time, we will surely also experience a most joyful reunion.

We love you, Barb

Dave & Valerie Johnson

Please accept our prayers and Condolences at this trying time. May the Creator keep you in his refuge and protection in your heart. -Habakkuk & Sujdah Aziz

Don, you were so special in so many ways.  You sure loved to entertain and we sure loved listening to that "accent"... To spend time at your home and Nagg's Head cottage was wonderful. We know how you loved the outdoors, your hunting and telling the stories. 
You married a special "niece" of mine and together you shared the mountains in skiing.
We will miss you but  continue to speak of you in many ways....love to Barb and daughter Terry.
