I am sorry to learn just now of Cousin Don’s passing. He was a kind, mirthful gentleman, and his wife was sweet and lovely.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I remember playing for Mr. Augustyniak in little League. He was very caring, generous, and dedicated to kids. He was a very decent and kind man who will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathies.

So very sorry to hear about your loss. I was so very glad to have my sons play for him on his little league teams. He was such a dedicated and devoted man who loved to help our kids learn fairness and teamwork. He will be sorely missed.
