Don leaves many co-workers who loved him and remember him as a true friend. He was a great man who left a huge mark on people’s lives.
Don was involved in the dream with his wife of getting a new Jonesborough Senior Center built and unfortunately was not allowed to enjoy the finished product. He patiently listened to Joan’s report of progress for this center. For those who wish to make a donation to the Jonesborough Senior Center Building project and mark it for Don’s Den as it will be affectionately called, he would be so pleased.
