Dolores and family. I was so sorry to hear about Don's passing. I've known you,Dolores, all my life and your parents are a continuing thread in our family quilt. Don, of course, holds a place as the bravest man, for moving my piano out of Grandma's house and delivering it to my folks on the Blackfoot River. Take care of yourselves.

Dolores, Denise and Doug: We are so sorry to hear of your lose. It was quite a surprise to us as we didn't hear that Don had any health issues.

We fondly remember gardening with you guys many years ago and, of course, being involved in Exxon together.

I know it's an old cliche, but our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Frank & Joan
