"Don was one of the BEST guys I've ever met! Worked with Don at Martin's countertops for 16 yrs when I started at Martin's Don showed me how to be a countertop man we had 67 vanities to get done , he showed me how to glue on edging and attach bowls we became friends instantly! No matter how I felt he would grab my shoulder and give it a couple good squeezes smile and say something to change the mood and make me smile !! Wasn't a tool he couldn't fix if I ever had one that I couldn't fix he say put it in my area and I'll get it and he'd have it done before the day was over ! I not only worked with him I lived around the corner from Don for 30 yrs if we ever saw each other driving by each other's houses we would always stop and talk for awhile he always asked about my wife and boys ! Neighborhood won't be the same without him ! Want to tell Dons family how sorry I am for their loss and to say what a GREAT Guy he was! He will truly be missed by me, my family and this neighborhood!! Thank You Don"
