So sorry to hear of Dons passing. He was a great guy and I really enjoyed golfing with him. Kindest condolences to Doris and his family.

~ Don Miatello

I didn't know Don for a long time but during our friendship, I knew him to be a great friend, always smiling, with a wonderful sense of humour, a calm demeanor, and a true gentleman. I will miss our joking about whether his golf ball ensignia is an A or a D, and rehashing our golf game over a beer (or two). The memories of our friendship will last for the rest of my life.

Doris, I am so very sorry for your loss. I am at a loss to express how much I admired and respected him as a coworker but more importantly as a wonderful man who loved his family. May your grief be slightly eased by knowing how much he meant to so many people. I will remember him with love and great respect.
