Sharon,

I can tell from the picture and just the brief description of your Dad's life that he was quite a man. I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my sincere sympathy and prayers for your family at this difficult time. Take comfort in the wonderful legacy he has left behind!

With Love,

Tim

I worked with Don through a partnership between MMS and Vanguard Solutions Group. He and Bill were not just partners but part of our group and friends. Don was always willing and able to lend his time, positive attitude and skills. He was a great example to me. His example will live on through his family, friends and all those he touched.

Daddy and I this past Christmas!!

Daddy - I have been speaking to you and crying for you every day and night...I will post again when I am ready.... I love you so much you were my ROCK! Daddy, if tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven
And bring you home again.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to Janet and their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Don was a wonderful man, passionate about his belief -- always eager to learn more, full of questions -- and a tireless worker for his church and his community. We will miss Don's dedication, his enthusiasm, his sense of humor and his wisdom.

From my heart comes a thank you for all the selflessly spirited contributions you made to Our Saviours Lutheran Church. I knew you as the Treasurer who saved my sanity. Everyone on the finance committee thanks you for your tenacious leadership. Lee will miss your cordiality. Our prayers go out all of the family.

Don, Coco and I will miss those great MMS dinners.

To Janet and Don’s family you have my sincerest wishes of sympathy for your loss and grief.
Don was a pleasure to work with - a professional who was always upbeat.
We worked together on many client sites plus the user conferences and training sessions. Even when we weren’t working together, we would cross paths at Houston’s Presidents Club as we were both on our Friday Evening journeys home. It was great to see Don’s friendly face during those layovers. I will

Sadly I did not get a chance to meet you Don, however I know your children, and how they all loved and respected you so very much! You were a source of strength, compassion, support and unconditional love for them, and raised them all to be such amazing people. I know that you will continue to watch over them, guide them, and shed light for them on their darkest days. The sun will shine forever brighter, as one of God's
