Don and I rode are bikes across the country several times together with the RFTW. He was a true patriot and a good man and a great friend! He will be missed. He suffered from postpartum stress disorder from the Vietnam war but he loved to dive and ride his motorcycle. I believe that’s what keep him going since the Vietnam days. He is at peace now.

Don is missed by his fellow Tritions (SCUBA divers) but the even greater loss is to all the future Tritions who will never get to meet him. Smooth seas, with the wind always at your back.

He was more than amazing man. He was a legend - myself and my family will never forget him and I will do everything I can to insure my children remember and know how wonderful he was in life. I will miss him dearly but I will cherish all the fond memories I have been blessed to have of him. We love you Uncle Donnie.

Rest In Peace, Don. You have earned it. I will always remember you taking us down to show us the exhibit you put together at the Vietnam Veteran Museum, you were so proud as we were of you. The Tritons were lucky to have you.

Don, We remember many fun Triton Events with you and your family. Our children knew you as “The Plumber” or Mr. Morrill. Thank You for your Military Service. You will be missed. Rest In Peace. Thanks

Please accept our most deepest and sincere condolences.... Don was more than a friend he wove himself into the very fiber of our family! When our boys were little they always referred to Uncle Don... as elusive as he was he always had a heart of gold! Don will always be remembered.

My deepest condolences to Don's family. He was a always a real friend to my family. Growing up as a child he was always part of the family since he and my dad scuba dived together. He will always be remembered to me as the "Marine". My children always reference to him as uncle Don. May his soul rest in peace.
