Nancy, Clinton, Darren and family…..our heart and prayers are with you. We were sadden to hear of Don’r passing. We have great memories of when we use to come out to yr place north of Stony and Johnny would help with yr plumbing. The kids would go coasting in the winter. You have wonderful memories of your husband and father to keep your heart warm.
