With him at the time were his loving wife, Gloriann, and many of his children and grandchildren.

We are all going to miss the wonderful spirit and gentleness of Don, and we wish to extend our condolences to all the family members he now leaves behind. Gloriann has suggested that, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations be made to the American Cancer Society or to a local hospice of your choice.
