To Sheila and family - Deepest sympathy for your sudden and inconsolable loss. Don was an intelligent, upright, interesting and accomplished man, a loyal friend, and a dedicated family man
I've known Don since I was a little girl. He was my brother's close friend, and I was that "pesky" little sister who always hung around trying to listen to their group banter and teasing. I was an observer of their "antics" through St Denis grade school, high school and college (where I might have joined in a few times), until they all matured into adulthood. (Maybe?) As adults we continued in the St Denis Circle of Friends, celebrating special occasions, fun trips, and just partying. The group ushered in many a New Year with "Halfer" and Sheila. In recent years they were our gracious hosts for the evening at their club and beautiful home.
Thank you Donald for your friendship over the years. You will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved you. Rest in peace in Our Lord's arms.
Nancy Gehring Mayer and Con Mayer
