Don, you will be sorely missed. You were an outstanding, leader, mentor, friend and example to thousands in Northern Kentucky and across our Nation. The Home Builders Association will never be the same without you. The mark you left upon our community will be forever remembered. Rest in peace my friend.
ReplyDeleteDon,
ReplyDeleteThe world in general and the construction industry specifically has been blessed with your participation over the years. You have the qualities that all of us strive to live. You are a wonderful example of a Christian man who has used the gifts God gave him to their max. God Bless and my prayers, Dick Maile
Dear Family and Friends of Don, Elaine and I share in your loss of our good friend, Don. I have many great memories of my relationship with Don, beginning when I first had contact with him over 40 years ago. His leadership and fellowship at the N. Kentucky HBA was inspiring and will not be replicated. It is hard for me to think about the HBA without thinking about Don. He will be missed and is in our prayers.

Dear Family and Friends,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that I can't be there with you. My thoughts are there, and all my memories of my favorite Uncle Don, who kept his sunny side up throughout his life. He was such an amazing photographer, and the photos on the walls of our house will always remind us of him.

Family and Friends,
ReplyDeleteThe great distance prevents our joining you all today, but know that you are in our hearts. As to many, Uncle Don was a beacon of warmth and character in my life (who I am sure did not realize the impact he had). I am most thankful that he was such a truly wonderful brother to my mom through so many years regardless of whatever else happened. Let us show our love for each other and rejoice in the precious gift that is life. Uncle Don, may you rest in peace and remain with us always.
