Don served in the Navy as a medical technician in Vietnam. After the war, he went home to work in his family's Ford dealership. He was an avid pilot and scuba diver. He was very much loved by his family. In 2006 he was stricken with ALS. He died on Nov. 30, 2008. It will soon be 5 years since this awful disease took Don's life. We still miss him everyday.
