Hanie & Jenna,
My deepest sympathy for your loss. Don was my boss and mentor as far back as 1978 and my instructor as far back as 1966. He taught me alot of things that have gotten me to where I am today. He was one of a kind. I know he loved you both dearly and the both of you are the best thing that ever happened for him. He will be missed.

Hanie and Jenna, Please know that in the short time I spent with Don and yourselves last year shopping for homes in Las Vegas I can truly say that I was touched by Don's charisma and love for life! I am shocked by his passing and pray for the both of you to be strong and know that wherever he is he is influencing all and being the life of the party. God Bless the both of you. Hector Zaragoza
