  • So sorry for your loss. Don was a very special man. His company was always enjoyed during the multiple times some of us bus drivers spent in the entry of the school before routes trying to solve or at least analyze the problems of the world! He was such a kind and gentle soul. may he rest in peace!

  • My deepest condolences.

    He was the best drivers ed teacher! I thought of him often while teaching 2 of my 3 girls. I sat many of times in his principal’s office. He was firm, yet never scary, and always kept a grin.

    May he rest in peace.
