I met Don only once when he showed up at our house to talk to my mom about some work he was doing for her. His presence was gentle and endearing, with such a funny and positive attitude. I feel greatly honored to have met Don. My mom and I will think of him fondly when we walk along Lake Michigan.
Don & Stephanie - our prayers and thoughts are with you at this sad time. My husband Don would visit with your dad when he was in the neighborhood doing projects around your house in Manistee. He will be missed by all who knew him. Don & Kay Meister
Don reached out to me only last week on Facebook Because he thought I was sick, which I wasn't, but that just goes to show you his concern for his friends. Don was our first drummer than manager of our band Foc'sle. We took our first road trip to Florida with Don, Rick Thatcher and myself and almost ended up in jail if it wasn't for Don's quick thinking.! About a year later, Don and his new Matador and I came out west to Salt Lake City where we explored the city together for the first time. We also connected in Texas, when he lived in Galveston, and I lived in Dallas, so we had some great memories over the years. RIP Spud.
