I always enjoyed talking with you about your knowledge of different parts of the country you’ve been to , especially talking about Pocahauntis. He was such a smart guy about so many things and I also enjoyed the conversations pertaining to the stock market. Everyone from the UAW gym/union hall will l miss Don the Doctor. All of the guys will miss his recommendations for medicine (from the internet). He was a lot of fun!
