February 9, 2020 7:37 amMarilyn, just heard from Terry Kelly about Don and you have our deepest sympathy. When I was 15 yrs old looking through the chain link fence at Sheaffer Pens airplanes, Don said, ” You want to touch them? Ya, You can wax the whole damn fleet !” And I did! He was such a positive influence on my flying career as well as my son Matt. He was our example of how a pilot should have common sense, good judgment. and have fun in flying safely. I will always miss him! Dennis & Matt
