Don was a great guy.. he loved his cars and cruising. He and Marion had 59 years together of a full life…he I’ll be missed by all who knew him..we were blessed to have had him touch our life.
Don was always a wonderful neighbor – always offering to help out if he saw us struggling with something. My son will always be grateful for the help Don gave him with his car!
I worked with Don for many years. He was sharp, meticulous and reliable. He was also a friend and a good Christian. RIP Don, and God’s peace to your family.
I am fortunate to have shared a part of my life with such caring man. Don was fair and had a good heart.
Sorry for your loss. Don was one of a kind. We worked together at Beaver Valley. His love of cars was unlike anyone I’ve ever known. We used to joke that if you could buy his used car it would be better than a new one.
Very sorry to hear about Dan’s death. As I am in Florida now, I will be unable to visit the funeral home. You have my sincere condolences. He was a great guy to work for and be with.
So sorry for your loss. Don was a great person I knew from Beaver Valley Power Station.
Would see him at car cruises.
Don and Marion have been and will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. Don is in the arms of Jesus now.
I am glad to call Don a good friend .
