Omgosh, Adam and I were so sorry to hear about Don; not only was he our neighbor for many years, he was truly one of a kind. He helped us buy a truck, helped us get our house painted; took care of our pets when we traveled - and I could go on and on. He and his wife, Sue, were especially supportive of our young son, Joe- always lending an extra hand whenever we needed it. While we moved from their neighborhood years ago, we still stayed in touch, and even managed to play a little pinochle: drink a few beers- and not kill ea other trying to win, and I remember Sue and I giggling until we almost wet our pants, trying to scheme a way to beat the guys at every card game we played. Ahhh, such fond and warm memories of him, both Adam and I have. Don even let me drive his brand new Corvette - well, only down the street... but it was all so much fun and enjoyable getting to know and spend time with both he and Sue... and their kids and grandkids!
RIP my sweet guy across the street; you will never be forgotten and we will contrition to raise a toast to you ( and Sue) when we have a cold one.

Adam and Laura Davidson
