Don 
You will always be in our thoughts and hearts. We will always cherish all the memories of you we all have. You had a personality that no other had and that is what made you, you. Mike, Cory and Odie will miss playing cribbage with you, and it was always a highlight .  We are thankful you are now resting peacefully and no longer in pain. We love you Don. Please give my beautiful sister ( your wife ) a hug and kiss for me. 
Love...Mike, Patti, Cory and Odie.  Bear too!!! 

Uncle Don,
I am so sad I cannot visit with you any longer. 
The fact that you are no long in pain helps my heart a little. 
I love you.
You will always live in my heart,
Stacy

Uncle Don,
If only I could call you on my ‘shoe phone’, I know how much you loved it! ;) Thank you so much for caring & being you. That rough exterior was just hiding an amazing warm & loving heart. ‘Oh geez’ is right. How lucky I was to have you in my life.
Until we meet again.
Mary

Don was my second Dad (father-in-law) He taught me a lot about life , being married , painting and Collecting things I might need some day.😉  He had a Big heart and an even Bigger Personality  ! He could make you laugh and make you Cry ( “ You Crying I’ll give you something to Cry about “) but he Shared a lot of Life with everyone he knew , and made a lot of noise doing it ! I owe a Lot to this Man and Love him for giving me a Huge boost to start my own Family  . I couldn’t have made it this far without you. I will make sure the Girls are taken care of ! Love you Don and will miss you but always keep you with me ! 

Dad, 
There are no words of how I feel, you know how much I loved you, appreciated you for everything  you’ve given me .. your love, your caring, your support, your understanding, your stories, memories but  most of all your warm heart. 
You are gone
But thank you
For all those wonderful, sweet things
You have left behind
In my home,
In my head,
In my heart. 
Love you Dad, more than you’ll ever know
Always and forever,
Your daughter, 
Lou💕


You will be missed by all of your family and friends.  Many memories come to mind.  Bar B Ques  at the Ranch, midnight Christmas Mass with the family,  camping and fishing in Mexico ,  you and my Dad painting and sand blasting bridges.
  Rest In Peace , your family loves  you with heartfelt prayers sent your way.  

I remember when i was younger grandpa, Dad, and i went deep sea fishing dad was telling me how tie on the hook for bait and i look over and grandpa tells me "Jonny this is the ba-" and the bait fish he grabbed started to go crazy and splashed him with water. he looks at the fish and says "your first buddy" and shows me how to bait the hook. we laughed and laughed and had a great time fishing im gonna miss not having another chance to go fishing or go to the movies, even grabbing a bit to eat at red Robins i'm gonna miss you grandpa.

Dad,
I’m so sad that you no longer here with us.  I know your in a better place.  I will miss our phone calls and making you laugh with a snarky comment or two.   I guess I’ll have to actually use Google Search for any painting questions I have going forward.   I hope we will all make you proud in the coming years.  We will hold your memory in our hearts forever...
Love you, your daughter Lisa
