Debbie, Adam and Alyssa,

I just found out about Don's passing. I am crushed. Don was such an incredible man, and one of my best friends. I pray for you all, and encourage you to know his legacy will not be forgotten. Thank you for sharing him with us in Rotary, the Police Chiefs Foundation, Leadership Rockland, and the dozens of other volunteer organizations that Don helped. A donation of the planting of 30 trees, in his name, has been made to the Arbor Day Foundation. He would have loved that, and I cannot think of a more appropriate way to celebrate his life. May God bless you, and keep you, and hold Don, in our precious memories.

John W Wickes and Family

I remember how supportive he was of me and the work I did in Montebello.
