I worked with Mr. Don at Crown Beverage as the secretary in the 90’s. He was a very educated and mild mannered man with a professional demeanor. I’m so sorry to learn of his passing and send prayers of comfort to his family and friends. May his soul rest peacefully.

Old (very old) friends from Nicholls State "College" where we first met Donald. Very sad to read of his passing and want his family to know that he was so much fun and so funny at Nicholls. Sending you all prayers and hope that you will take comfort in your memories.

Loved how he enjoyed watching Barrett play baseball. They had a special bond.
