Judy, Becky, Jeff, and family- Words cannot express how heartbroken we are. We wish we could be with you today. Duck was such a good man and such a good friend. Through all the years we have known each other and through all the adventures we shared, we cannot think of one moment that was not filled with laughter and good times. Thank you, Duck, for being you and adding so much to our lives.

To Uncle Duck,
You were the best godfather a girl could ask for. I will always cherish fourth of July parties, thanksgiving dinners, Easters, birthday parties and more. You made the best sherbet punch in the world and no one will ever be able to take the cake on that forever! Thank you for being such a fun, generous and caring uncle. I will miss you dearly, but I know I will see you again one day. Rest in peace, and my deepest condolences to the family. Love you all..

Judy:

I was a classmate of Don's at De La Salle. I am happy that he had a chance to attend our 50th a few years ago. It made my work worthwhile. I am sorry for your loss and offer my deepest condolences.
